Purpose (the aim of the study): Previous studies have found Chondrocalcinosis (CC) to be associated with osteoarthritis (OA) and even suggested it may represent a specific subtype of OA. However, the exact relationship between CC and OA is currently unknown, and the data on CC is sparse. We have developed a grading score (Boer-Oei-Boer) BOB-score to describe the presence and severity of knee CC. However, applying the BOB score on large radiograph datasets is impeded by the substantial effort required for manual measurement.
