Description |
Abstract: The AI boom in the last 10 years largely builds on the early success of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in image classification. In healthcare, diagnostic imaging has thus logically been one of the early adopters of the newly developed technologies. Beyond image classification for automated diagnosis, CNNs and their offsprings have successfully been applied to different steps of the image production chain such as system calibration, image reconstruction and image denoising. The use of AI also promises to alleviate different bottlenecks in the imaging workflow, with the aim of reducing misdiagnosis and staff workload while increasing patient throughput. This seminar will give an overview of some of these current and potential applications of AI in medical imaging. The focus will be on general principles and achieved benefits rather than on the technical aspects of deep learning. |
