BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of most cancers is made by a board-certified pathologist based on a tissue biopsy under the microscope. Recent research reveals a high discordance between individual pathologists. For melanoma, the literature reports 25-26% ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Skin melanoma is one of the major health problems in many countries. Dermatologists usually diagnose melanoma by visual inspection of moles. Digital hair removal can provide a non-invasive way to remove hair and hair-like re...
BACKGROUND: Building cancer risk models from real-world data requires overcoming challenges in data preprocessing, efficient representation, and computational performance. We present a case study of a cloud-based approach to learning from de-identifi...
Melanoma is the most aggressive type of skin cancer, which significantly reduces the life expectancy. Early detection of melanoma can reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with skin cancer. Dermoscopic images acquired by dermoscopic instrumen...

Apr 10, 2019
BACKGROUND: Recent studies have successfully demonstrated the use of deep-learning algorithms for dermatologist-level classification of suspicious lesions by the use of excessive proprietary image databases and limited numbers of dermatologists. For ...

BACKGROUND: Recent studies have demonstrated the use of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to classify images of melanoma with accuracies comparable to those achieved by board-certified dermatologists. However, the performance of a CNN exclusively ...

Feb 22, 2019
BACKGROUND: Several recent publications have demonstrated the use of convolutional neural networks to classify images of melanoma at par with board-certified dermatologists. However, the non-availability of a public human benchmark restricts the comp...

OBJECTIVE: Melanoma is a dangerous form of the skin cancer responsible for thousands of deaths every year. Early detection of melanoma is possible through visual inspection of pigmented lesions over the skin, treated with simple excision of the cance...
PURPOSE: To evaluate performance and the clinical impact of a novel machine learning based vessel-suppressing computer-aided detection (CAD) software in chest computed tomography (CT) of patients with malignant melanoma.
