AI System Accurately Detects Lung Cancer in CT Scans
Engineers from the University of Central Florida's Computer Vision Research Center have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) system which can detect tiny specks of lung cancer in CT scans. Radiologists find it difficult to identify such tiny tumors and have an accuracy of 65%, while the AI system has an accuracy of about 95%, according to the engineers. More...05 Sep 2018
American College of Radiology Releases Initial Use Cases in AI Library
The American College of Radiology Data Science Institute has started releasing its first artificial intelligence (AI) use cases in the ACR DSI TOUCH-AI library for generating feedback ahead of the projected release of all of the use cases in the fall. More...03 Sep 2018
New All-Optical System Could Revolutionize Image-Guided Interventions
A new ultrasound system that uses optical, instead of electronic components, could improve performance while providing doctors with significantly more flexibility in the way they use ultrasound to diagnose and treat medical problems. For the first time, researchers have demonstrated the use of an all-optical ultrasound imager for video-rate, real-time 2D imaging of biological tissue, marking a significant step towards making all-optical ultrasound practical for routine clinical use. Since all-optical ultrasound systems do not require any electronic components in the imaging probe, they could be safely used at the same time as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners. This can provide doctors with a more comprehensive picture of the tissues around an area of interest, such as a tumor or blood vessel, according to a recent paper published in the Optical Society (OSA) journal Biomedical Optics Express.
