A Cleveland company and Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) just got a big $2. 5 million grant from the National Institutes of Health. This money will help them use AI to make medical research faster and more detailed. The team, led by CWRU professor Susann Brady-Kalnay and BioInVision Inc. , wa
Heart scans using MRI give doctors a clear look at the heart's structure. This helps in spotting heart problems early. But, making these scans work well with computers needs lots of labeled data. Labeling data is a big job. It takes time and effort. A new method called PDFMSeg changes this. It uses
A young girl, just two years old, faced a health puzzle. She had Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, a condition that can sometimes lead to tumors. Doctors found a suspicious spot on her left adrenal gland. To figure out what it was, they used a special scan called 18F-FDG PET/CT. This scan showed that th
Medical imaging has seen huge changes in the last 25 years. It's not just about looking inside the body. It's about understanding what's happening in there. This tech has changed how doctors work. In the past, doctors had to guess a lot. They used their hands and simple tools. Now, they can see ins
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common issue that many people face as they age. It can be tough to spot in its early stages, but a new tech approach is changing the game. This method uses something called deep contrastive learning to look at X-ray images and find signs of KOA more accurately. The go
Doctors deal with a lot of X-ray images. They need to spot new diseases. But they also need to remember old ones. This is tricky. It's like trying to learn a new language while not forgetting your mother tongue. Computers face the same problem. They can learn new things. But they often forget old in
Breast density can make it tough to spot cancer on mammograms. That's why researchers decided to compare two methods: the usual mammogram and a newer one called contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM). They wanted to see if CESM could handle dense breasts better. Dense breasts have more gland
In the realm of medical science, a new AI tool named MSInet is making waves. It's designed to tackle a complex task: interpreting mass spectrometry imaging (MSI). MSI is a technique that creates maps of molecules in tissues without using labels. However, these maps are often messy and hard to unders
Prostate cancer is a big deal. Doctors need to match up images from MRI scans and tissue samples to figure out the best way to treat it. But doing this by hand takes a lot of time and isn't always accurate. That's where AI comes in. A new AI model called SE-ResNet-TPS is designed to do this matchin
Thyroid scans using a substance called MIBI have been around for a while. They used to be quite popular. But then, newer technologies like ultrasounds, cell tests, and advanced imaging techniques took over. Many thought MIBI was outdated. However, recent findings suggest that MIBI might still have a
