Artificial Intelligence Algorithm Advances in Medical Imaging and Image Analysis

Medical imaging is a non-invasive method for obtaining internal images of the human body or specific body parts by utilizing physical phenomena such as light, electric fields, magnetic fields, and sound waves. In clinical practice, modalities such as X-ray imaging, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and ultrasound are most commonly used. Imaging data serve as one of the most vital pieces of “evidence” in medical diagnosis, accounting for over 90% of the total medical data [1].
