Methods and apparatus for the application of machine learning to radiographic images of animals. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving a set of radiographic images captured of an animal, applying one or more transformations to the set of radiographic images to create a modified set, segmenting the modified set using one or more segmentation artificial intelligence engines to create a set of segmented radiographic images, feeding the set of segmented radiographic images to respective ones of a plurality of classification artificial intelligence engines, outputting results from the plurality of classification artificial intelligence engines for the set of segmented radiographic images to an output decision engine, and adding the set of segmented radiographic images and the output results from the plurality of classification artificial intelligence engines to a training set for one or more of the plurality of classification artificial intelligence engines. Computer-readable apparatus and computing systems are also disclosed.
