How AI is Propelling Radiology & Medical Imaging Capabilities

Medical imaging has been used extensively for early diagnosis of various diseases. Be it computed tomography (CT), mammography, ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and nuclear medicine tests, radiologists and pathologists have relied on these images to analyse the condition of patients. However, most of the analysis has been manual, heavily depending on the skill sets of the radiologists or pathologists to identify anomalies in the images. The challenge has been the enormous volumes of patient samples to be analysed and the limited number of radiologists or pathologists. Let's take an in-depth look at the impact and possibilities of AI and new applications in the Indian context.
