BACKGROUND/AIMS: Support vector machine-based automated grading (known as iGradingM) has been shown to be safe, cost-effective and robust in the diabetic retinopathy (DR) screening (DES) programme in Scotland. It triages screening episodes as gradabl...

PURPOSE: Osteoporosis is a common bone disorder characterized by decreased bone mineral density (BMD) and increased bone fragility, which can lead to fractures and eventually cause morbidity and mortality. It is of great concern that the one-year mor...
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) poses a significant challenge in diabetes management, with its progression often asymptomatic until advanced stages. This underscores the urgent need for cost-effective and reliable screening methods. Consequently, the integ...
BACKGROUND: Thyroid nodules, increasingly prevalent globally, pose a risk of malignant transformation. Early screening is crucial for management, yet current models focus mainly on ultrasound features. This study explores machine learning for screeni...
The increasing prevalence of heart failure (HF) in ageing populations drives demand for echocardiography (echo). There is a worldwide shortage of trained sonographers and long waiting times for expert echo. We hypothesised that artificial intelligenc...
Dengue causes approximately 10.000 deaths and 100 million symptomatic infections annually worldwide, making it a significant public health concern. To address this, artificial intelligence tools like machine learning can play a crucial role in develo...
BACKGROUND: Early detection is essential in lung cancer survival. Lung screening or incidental detection on unrelated imaging holds the most promise for early detection. With the large volume of imaging performed today, management of incidental pulmo...
INTRODUCTION: Radiologist shortages threaten the sustainability of breast cancer screening programmes. Artificial intelligence (AI) products that can interpret mammograms could mitigate this risk. While previous studies have suggested this technology...
BACKGROUND/AIMS: National guidelines of many countries set screening intervals for diabetic retinopathy (DR) based on grading of the last screening retinal images. We explore the potential of deep learning (DL) on images to predict progression to ref...
