AI Gives One-Stop Shopping for Urinary Stone Evaluation

http://www.auntminnie.com/index.aspx?sec=sup&sub=aic&pag=dis&ItemID=118413 AuntMinnie.com, 10/3/2017, Erik L. Ridley An artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm can accurately detect and classify urinary stones based solely on images from noncontrast single-energy CT scans, according to research presented at last week’s Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine’s Conference on Machine Intelligence in Medical Imaging (C-MIMI) in Baltimore. In a proof-of-concept study, an…

Bone Age Assessment with Artificial Intelligence
