Medical Imaging

Physicians utilize medical imaging to see inside the body to diagnose and treat patients. This includes computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-ray, ultrasound, fluoroscopy, angiography,  and the nuclear imaging modalities of PET and SPECT.

Does size matter? 3 key findings from a new study on developing AI for radiology research

When research teams are developing deep learning models, they have to make certain decisions about the image resolutions used in their work. For instance, should they always aim to use the largest images possible? Or are there times when smaller images can get the job done?

Medical imaging, radiation therapy professionals urged to embrace AI

The American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) has published a new white paper on AI and its potential impact on the work of medical imaging and radiation therapy professionals.

Around the web

U.S. health systems are increasingly leveraging digital health to conduct their operations, but how health systems are using digital health in their strategies can vary widely.

When human counselors are unavailable to provide work-based wellness coaching, robots can substitute—as long as the workers are comfortable with emerging technologies and the machines aren’t overly humanlike.

A vendor that supplies EHR software to public health agencies is partnering with a health-tech startup in the cloud-communications space to equip state and local governments for managing their response to the COVID-19 crisis.
