Artificial Intelligence Medicine: Technical Basis and Clinical Applications presents a
comprehensive overview of the field, ranging from its history and technical foundations, to
specific clinical applications and finally to prospects. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is expanding
across all domains at a breakneck speed. Medicine, with the availability of large
multidimensional datasets, lends itself to strong potential advancement with the appropriate
harnessing of AI. The integration of AI can occur throughout the continuum of medicine: from …

There has been a revolution in the past decade as “deep learning” has begun to show high
performance with robust reliability in the real world for many imaging tasks. Current deep
learning technologies are being applied to medical imaging tasks with good results, which
has prompted great interest in applying them broadly into clinical practice. This chapter
describes the basic principles of deep learning methods and some common applications in
medical imaging.
