With the booming growth of artificial intelligence (AI), especially the recent advancements of deep learning, utilizing advanced deep learning-based methods for medical image analysis has become an active research area both in medical industry and academia. This paper reviewed the recent progress of deep learning research in medical image analysis and clinical applications. It also discussed the existing problems in the field and provided possible solutions and future directions.<i>Highlights</i>. This paper reviewed the advancement of convolutional neural network-based techniques in clinical applications. More specifically, state-of-the-art clinical applications include four major human body systems: the nervous system, the cardiovascular system, the digestive system, and the skeletal system. Overall, according to the best available evidence, deep learning models performed well in medical image analysis, but what cannot be ignored are the algorithms derived from small-scale medical datasets impeding the clinical applicability. Future direction could include federated learning, benchmark dataset collection, and utilizing domain subject knowledge as priors.<i>Conclusion</i>. Recent advanced deep learning technologies have achieved great success in medical image analysis with high accuracy, efficiency, stability, and scalability. Technological advancements that can alleviate the high demands on high-quality large-scale datasets could be one of the future developments in this area.</p>","PeriodicalId":73207,"journal":{"name":"Health data science","volume":" ","pages":"8786793"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10880179/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47962962","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Barbastathis, Chris Rackauckas","doi":"10.1101/2020.12.01.20242172","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.12.01.20242172","url":null,"abstract":"In the wake of the rapid surge in the Covid-19 infected cases seen in Southern and West-Central USA in the period of June-July 2020, there is an urgent need to develop robust, data-driven models to quantify the effect which early reopening had on the infected case count increase. In particular, it is imperative to address the question: How many infected cases could have been prevented, had the worst affected states not reopened early? To address this question, we have developed a novel Covid-19 model by augmenting the classical SIR epidemiological model with a neural network module. The model decomposes the contribution of quarantine strength to the infection timeseries, allowing us to quantify the role of quarantine control and the associated reopening policies in the US states which showed a major surge in infections. We show that the upsurge in the infected cases seen in these states is strongly co-related with a drop in the quarantine/lockdown strength diagnosed by our model. Further, our results demonstrate that in the event of a stricter lockdown without early reopening, the number of active infected cases recorded on 14 July could have been reduced by more than 40% in all states considered, with the actual number of infections reduced being more than 100,000 for the states of Florida and Texas. As we continue our fight against Covid-19, our proposed model can be used as a valuable asset to simulate the effect of several reopening strategies on the infected count evolution; for any region under consideration.","PeriodicalId":73207,"journal":{"name":"Health data science","volume":"2021 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45768128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
