BACKGROUND: As opioid prescriptions have risen, there has also been an increase in opioid use disorder (OUD) and its adverse outcomes. Accurate and complete epidemiologic surveillance of OUD, to inform prevention strategies, presents challenges. The ...
IMPORTANCE: Lung cancer screening with chest computed tomography (CT) prevents lung cancer death; however, fewer than 5% of eligible Americans are screened. CXR-LC, an open-source deep learning tool that estimates lung cancer risk from existing chest...
INTRODUCTION: Practice-Based Learning and Improvement, a core competency identified by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education, carries importance throughout a physician's career. Practice-Based Learning and Improvement is cultivated...
OBJECTIVES: We propose a communication-efficient transfer learning approach (COMMUTE) that effectively incorporates multi-site healthcare data for training a risk prediction model in a target population of interest, accounting for challenges includin...
It has been shown that identical deep learning (DL) architectures will produce distinct explanations when trained with different hyperparameters that are orthogonal to the task (e.g. random seed, training set order). In domains such as healthcare and...
BACKGROUND: Unstructured text in medical records, such as Electronic Health Records, contain an enormous amount of valuable information for research; however, it is difficult to extract and structure important information because of frequent typograp...
Healthcare data are inherently multimodal, including electronic health records (EHR), medical images, and multi-omics data. Combining these multimodal data sources contributes to a better understanding of human health and provides optimal personalize...
