Radiology Imaging

The radiology imaging channel includes technology news related to computed tomography (CT), digital radiography (DR / X-ray), ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), radiographic fluoroscopy (R/F), mammography, angiography, 3-D printing, contrast media injectors, molecular imaging, neurological imaging, pediatric imaging and radiation dose management. 

In these three examples of soft tissue lesions, the images are unperturbed on the left column and blurred on the right column. The AI system was sensitive to the blurring, while the radiologists were not. This showed that the AI system relies on details in soft tissue lesions that are considered irrelevant by the radiologists. Image courtesy of Taro Makino, NYU’s Center for Data Science
