Title:
CAD (COMPUTER-AIDED DECISION) SUPPORT FOR MEDICAL IMAGING USING MACHINE LEARNING TO ADAPT CAD PROCESS WITH KNOWLEDGE COLLECTED DURING ROUTINE USE OF CAD SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005001742
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
CAD (computer-aided decision) support systems, methods and tools for medical imaging are provided, which use machine learning classification for automated detection and marking of regions of interest in medical images. Machine learning methods are used for adapting/optimizing a CAD process by seamlessly incorporating physician knowledge into the CAD process using training data that is obtained during routine use of the CAD system.
