How ANNs Are Revolutionizing Medicine
Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have been quietly evolving since the 1950s, but their impact on healthcare has accelerated dramatically in recent years. Unlike modern Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT,…
This study proposes a semi-weakly supervised learning approach for pulmonary embolism (PE) detection on CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) to alleviate the resource-intensive burden of exhaustive medical image annotation. Attention-based CNN-RNN models were trained on…
