AutoML Systems For Medical Imaging

The integration of machine learning in medical image analysis can greatly enhance the quality of healthcare provided by physicians. The combination of human expertise and computerized systems can result in improved diagnostic accuracy. An automated machine learning approach simplifies the creation of custom image recognition models by utilizing neural architecture search and transfer learning techniques. Medical imaging techniques are used to non-invasively create images of internal organs and body parts for diagnostic and procedural purposes. This article aims to highlight the potential applications, strategies, and techniques of AutoML in medical imaging through theoretical and empirical evidence.

Online learning for X-ray, CT or MRI

Medical imaging plays an important role in the medical sector in identifying diseases. X-ray, computed tomography (CT) scans, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are a few examples of medical imaging. Most of the time, these imaging techniques are utilized to examine and diagnose diseases. Medical professionals identify the problem after analyzing the images. However, manual identification can be challenging because the human eye is not always able to recognize complex patterns in an image. Because of this, it is difficult for any professional to recognize a disease with rapidity and accuracy. In recent years, medical professionals have started adopting Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems to evaluate medical images. This system can analyze the image and detect the disease very precisely and quickly. However, this system has certain drawbacks in that it needs to be processed before analysis. Medical research is already entered a new era of research which is called Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI can automatically find complex patterns from an image and identify diseases. Methods for medical imaging that uses AI techniques will be covered in this chapter.

Introduction to Medical Imaging Informatics

Medical imaging informatics is a rapidly growing field that combines the principles of medical imaging and informatics to improve the acquisition, management, and interpretation of medical images. This chapter introduces the basic concepts of medical imaging informatics, including image processing, feature engineering, and machine learning. It also discusses the recent advancements in computer vision and deep learning technologies and how they are used to develop new quantitative image markers and prediction models for disease detection, diagnosis, and prognosis prediction. By covering the basic knowledge of medical imaging informatics, this chapter provides a foundation for understanding the role of informatics in medicine and its potential impact on patient care.
