Title:
AI-in-imaging: Unlocking the Full Potential of Medical Imaging
Abstract:
Based on advanced machine learning, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to bring about significant transformations in healthcare practices. This potential extends to the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, offering the possibility of ensuring that patients receive precise and timely interventions. Nevertheless, the inherent heterogeneity of medical data, particularly in the realm of imaging-centered medical data, poses a formidable challenge to current AI systems. This challenge has impeded the seamless integration of AI into daily medical practices. In this presentation, we aim to share our experiences in the development of intelligent data analytics, employing newly devised machine learning tools. These tools are designed to effectively analyze the burgeoning landscape of imaging-centered medical data. By doing so, they assist physicians and hospital administrations in making informed decisions that are both optimal and timely.
