Artificial Intelligence in Medical Imaging


Book Description

This book provides a thorough overview of the ongoing evolution in the application of artificial intelligence (AI) within healthcare and radiology, enabling readers to gain a deeper insight into the technological background of AI and the impacts of new and emerging technologies on medical imaging. After an introduction on game changers in radiology, such as deep learning technology, the technological evolution of AI in computing science and medical image computing is described, with explanation of basic principles and the types and subtypes of AI. Subsequent sections address the use of imaging biomarkers, the development and validation of AI applications, and various aspects and issues relating to the growing role of big data in radiology. Diverse real-life clinical applications of AI are then outlined for different body parts, demonstrating their ability to add value to daily radiology practices. The concluding section focuses on the impact of AI on radiology and the implications for radiologists, for example with respect to training. Written by radiologists and IT professionals, the book will be of high value for radiologists, medical/clinical physicists, IT specialists, and imaging informatics professionals.

CLIP 2023 accepted 5 full papers and 3 short papers form 8 submissions received. It focuses on holistic patient models for personalized healthcare with the goal to bring basic research methods closer to the clinical practice. For FAIMI 2023, 19 full papers have been accepted from 20 submissions. They focus on creating awareness about potential fairness issues that can emerge in the context of machine learning. And for EPIMI 2023, 2 papers have been accepted from 5 submissions. They investigate questions that underlie medical imaging research at the most fundamental level.




Multimodal Imaging in Uveitis


Book Description

This book is a comprehensive guide to the imaging techniques that have revolutionized the diagnosis and management of uveitis during the past decade, including optical coherence tomography (OCT), enhanced depth imaging, fundus autofluorescence, and wide-field angiography. In addition, the current role of the traditional (invasive) gold standard techniques, fluorescein angiography and indocyanine green angiography, is described. Among the newer imaging modalities, detailed attention is paid to the various OCT technologies such as spectral domain OCT, enhanced-depth imaging OCT, and enface swept-source OCT. Further individual chapters focus on imaging using adaptive optics, multiview OCT, and OCT angiography. Uveitis can affect virtually any structure in the eye, and imaging of these structures is critical in the diagnosis, prognosis, and management of the disease. Increasing use and better understanding of the different modalities described in this book are sure to improve our knowledge of disease mechanisms and likely outcomes.
