用2D投影生成椎体轮廓，实现颈椎骨折精准识别。

Cervical spine fractures require rapid and accurate diagnosis, yet automatic CT interpretation remains challenging as subtle injuries must be assessed across large 3D volumes. We ask whether full 3D vertebra segmentation is necessary for automated fracture recognition, or whether vertebra masks approximated from 2D projections can preserve sufficient diagnostic context. We propose an end-to-end pipeline that localizes the cervical spine, estimates C1-C7 vertebra masks from optimized 2D projections, and uses the resulting vertebra-level volumes for downstream fracture classification. A YOLOv8 detector first localizes spine regions of interest from multi-view variance projections, achieving a 3D mean Intersection over Union of 94.45%. Multi-label vertebra segmentation is then performed with a DenseNet121-Unet on energy-based sagittal and coronal projections, attaining a mean Dice score of 87.86%. The predicted 2D masks are back-projected and fused into approximate 3D masks for each vertebra to extract volumes of interest from the original CT. These volumes are analyzed by an ensemble of 2.5D spatio-sequential CNN-Transformer models, yielding vertebra-level and patient-level F1 scores of 68.15 and 82.26, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 91.62 and 90.95, and area under the precision-recall curve of 75.60 and 92.00, respectively. The projection-derived volumes achieved fracture-recognition performance comparable to a full 3D-segmentation baseline, while shifting the vertebra segmentation stage into a lower-dimensional domain. Saliency-based explainability and interobserver variability analysis further examine interpretability and reliability. Overall, the results indicate that projection-based mask approximation is a viable proxy for full 3D vertebra segmentation in cervical fracture recognition.
