Improving Workflow Efficiency for Mammography Using Machine Learning.

Journal of the American College of Radiology : JACR
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine whether machine learning could reduce the number of mammograms the radiologist must read by using a machine-learning classifier to correctly identify normal mammograms and to select the uncertain and ...

Role of Artificial Intelligence within the Telehealth Domain.

Yearbook of medical informatics
OBJECTIVES: This paper provides a discussion about the potential scope of applicability of Artificial Intelligence methods within the telehealth domain. These methods are focussed on clinical needs and provide some insight to current directions, base...

Predicting discharge placement after elective surgery for lumbar spinal stenosis using machine learning methods.

European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society
PURPOSE: An excessive amount of total hospitalization is caused by delays due to patients waiting to be placed in a rehabilitation facility or skilled nursing facility (RF/SNF). An accurate preoperative prediction of who would need a RF/SNF place aft...

Dosimetric study on learning-based cone-beam CT correction in adaptive radiation therapy.

Medical dosimetry : official journal of the American Association of Medical Dosimetrists
INTRODUCTION: Cone-beam CT (CBCT) image quality is important for its quantitative analysis in adaptive radiation therapy. However, due to severe artifacts, the CBCTs are primarily used for verifying patient setup only so far. We have developed a lear...

Machine learning concepts, concerns and opportunities for a pediatric radiologist.

Pediatric radiology
Machine learning, a subfield of artificial intelligence, is a rapidly evolving technology that offers great potential for expanding the quality and value of pediatric radiology. We describe specific types of learning, including supervised, unsupervis...

Artificial intelligence and colonoscopy: Current status and future perspectives.

Digestive endoscopy : official journal of the Japan Gastroenterological Endoscopy Society
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Application of artificial intelligence in medicine is now attracting substantial attention. In the field of gastrointestinal endoscopy, computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) for colonoscopy is the most investigated area, although it is s...

Using Machine Learning to Identify Change in Surgical Decision Making in Current Use of Damage Control Laparotomy.

Journal of the American College of Surgeons
BACKGROUND: In an earlier study, we reported the successful reduction in the use of damage control laparotomy (DCL); however, no change in the relative frequencies of specific indications was observed. In this study, we aimed to use machine learning ...

Novel knowledge-based system with relation detection and textual evidence for question answering research.

PloS one
With the development of large-scale knowledge bases (KBs), knowledge-based question answering (KBQA) has become an important research topic in recent years. The key task in KBQA is relation detection, which is the process of finding a compatible answ...
