Image: A new artificial-intelligence-based approach to image reconstruction – called AUTOMAP – yields higher quality images from less data, reducing radiation doses for CT and PET and shortening scan times for MRI. Shown here are MR images reconstructed from the same data with conventional approaches (left) and AUTOMAP (right) (Photo courtesy of Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, Massachusetts General Hospital).

New AI Technique Dramatically Improves Quality of Medical Imaging

Researchers have developed a new technique based on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning that enables radiologists to acquire higher quality images without having to collect additional data at the cost of increased radiation dose for computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET) or uncomfortably long scan times for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Dissecting AI to Better Understand the Human Brain

At the 25th annual meeting of the Cognitive Neuroscience Society (CNS), researchers presented their work in which cognitive neuroscientists are increasingly using emerging artificial networks to enhance their understanding of one of the most elusive intelligence systems, the human brain. Among the work presented at the symposium at the CNS annual meeting held in Boston from March 24-27, 2018, was “Human and machine cognition: The deep learning challenge” by Aude Oliva of MIT. In Oliva’s work, neuroscientists are learning much about the role of contextual clues in human image recognition. By using “artificial neurons” – essentially lines of code, software – with neural network models, they can parse out the various elements that go into recognizing a specific place or object. More...

Image: The global X-ray detectors market is expected to grow to USD 3.31 billion by 2022, driven mainly by increasing public and private investments in digital imaging technologies, declining prices and benefits offered by digital detectors, and reimbursement cuts for analog X-rays (Photo courtesy of Canon Medical Systems).

Top 3 Trends Impacting Global X-Ray Detector Market

The global X-ray detectors market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.6% from USD 2.53 billion in 2017 to USD 3.31 billion by 2022, driven mainly by increasing public and private investments in digital imaging technologies, declining prices and benefits offered by digital detectors, and reimbursement cuts for analog X-rays. However, the high cost of digital X-ray systems may limit the market growth to some extent. Nevertheless, the introduction of wireless X-ray detectors, growing medical tourism in the developing countries and numerous growth avenues in the emerging markets will provide opportunities for the global X-ray detectors market.
