Image perception: Are radiologists akin to MLB batters?

AuntMinnie

A radiologist’s perception when viewing a complex MR image may be akin to a Major League Baseball (MLB) batter reading the stitches on a fastball, according to researchers exploring exactly how diagnostic interpretations are made. The Perception Lab is a "pop-up" version of an academic research lab focused on medical image perception.

New AI training strategies stiffen defense against adversarial attacks

AuntMinnie

The work presented at RSNA builds on previous research that investigated the feasibility of adversarial attacking (black-box type), in which data generated by generative adversarial networks (GANs) are inserted into the image as either positive- or negative-looking adversarial image features.

Understanding Breast Density and the Impact of the New FDA Requirement: How Aidoc and ScreenPoint Support MQSA Compliance

Aidoc

Why Breast Density Matters in Cancer Screening Dense breast tissue affects screening in two key ways: Reduced Visibility : Dense tissue appears white on mammograms, as do tumors, making it harder to detect abnormalities. Inter-radiologist Variation : Assessments can vary up to 33% 1 when different radiologists interpret the same mammograms.
