AI Software for Restoring Photos Could Find Use in Medical Imaging
Researchers have developed a deep learning-based approach that can fix photos originally taken in low light and are grainy or pixilated, and automatically remove the noise and artifacts by simply looking at examples of corrupted photos only. The approach can also be used to enhance MRI images, which could pave the way for a drastic improvement in medical imaging. More...16 Aug 2018
Video Conference Could Facilitate Relationships between Radiologists and ICU Clinicians
Radiologists and intensive care unit (ICU) clinicians who have not been connected for a decade can improve their relationships as well as quality of care through immersive video conference, according to a group of physicians from the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. More...16 Aug 2018

FDA Gives Clearance to World's First Deep-Learning Solution to Assist Workflow Triage
A brain solution that works with radiologists to flag acute intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) cases in head CTs and is the world's first deep-learning solution to assist radiologists in workflow triage has been granted clearance by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The product is the first of the expanding suite of artificial intelligence (AI)-based workflow optimization solutions to be offered by Aidoc, a provider of AI solutions for radiologists.

Deep Learning-Based System Detects Lesions in Knee MR Images
Researchers from the department of radiology at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health have developed a deep learning approach to detect cartilage lesions by evaluating MR images of the knee. The researchers used segmentation and classification convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to develop the fully automated deep learning–based cartilage lesion detection system. More...10 Aug 2018

New AI Software Cuts Radiation Therapy Planning Time
Researchers from the University of Toronto have developed automation software that will cut down the time for developing radiation therapy plans — individualized maps that help doctors determine where to blast tumors — from days to mere hours. More...10 Aug 2018
RSNA Announces AI and Machine-Learning Initiatives for 2018
The Radiological Society of North America has planned a diverse roster of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) programming for RSNA 2018 that will focus on the power and potential of AI in radiology and issues associated with implementation. More...10 Aug 2018
Global Market for Machine Learning to Surpass USD 2 Billion by 2023
The global market for machine learning in medical imaging is expected to record a robust growth and surpass USD 2 billion by 2023, driven by benefits such as enhanced productivity, increased diagnostic accuracy, more personalized treatment planning and improved clinical outcomes. However, the market is still in the innovator and early adopter phase, and will need to overcome several barriers before AI becomes mainstream in medical imaging. These are the latest findings of Signify Research, an independent supplier of market intelligence and consultancy to the global healthcare technology industry. More...10 Aug 2018
