Existing prospective and retrospective motion correction methods remain ineffective when dealing with complex large amplitude nonrigid motion artifacts. Here, we introduce an unsupervised deep learning-based image to image translation method between motion-affected and motion-free image domains, for correction of rigid-body, respiratory and nonrigid motion artifacts in <em>vivo</em> kidney MRI.</p><p>High resolution (i.e., 156 × 156 × 370 μm) <em>ex vivo</em> 3 Tesla MRI scans of 13 porcine kidneys (because of their anatomical homology to human kidney) were conducted using a 3D T2-weighted turbo spin echo sequence. Rigid-body, respiratory and nonrigid motion-affected images were then simulated using the magnitude-only <em>ex vivo</em> motion-free image set. Each 2D coronal slice of motion-affected and motion-free image volume was then divided into patches of 128 × 128 for training the model.

One major challenge affecting the use of AI programs is that the results of AI programs are sometimes not replicable, meaning that the performance of the AI program is substantially different in the external testing dataset when compared to its performance in the training or validation datasets. This often happens when the external testing dataset is very different from the training or validation datasets. Sex, ethnicity, and race are some of the most important biological and social determinants of health, and are important factors that may differ between training, validation, and external testing datasets, and may contribute to the lack of reproducibility of AI programs. We reviewed over 28,000 original research articles published in the three journals with the highest impact factors in each of 16 medical specialties between 2019 and 2022, to evaluate how often the sex, ethnic, and racial compositions of the datasets used to develop AI algorithms were reported. We also reviewed all currently used AI reporting guidelines, to evaluate which guidelines recommend specific reporting of sex, ethnicity, and race. We find that only 42.47 % (338/797) of articles reported sex, 1.4 % (12/831) reported ethnicity, and 7.3 % (61/831) reported race. When sex was reported, approximately 55.8 % of the study participants were female, and when ethnicity was reported, only 6.2 % of the study participants were Hispanic/Latino. When race was reported, only 29.4 % of study participants were non-White. Most AI guidelines (93.3 %; 14/15) also did not recommend reporting sex, ethnicity, and race. To have fair and ethnical AI, it is important that the sex, ethnic, and racial compositions of the datasets used to develop the AI program are known.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":73399,"journal":{"name":"Intelligence-based medicine","volume":"8 ","pages":"Article 100113"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666521223000273/pdfft?md5=070012db350ebd8eac9219c40819eaa8&pid=1-s2.0-S2666521223000273-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"92045506","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}

However, these existing state-of-the-art (SOTA) have limitations that hinder their overall efficacy. They rely significantly on datasets with limited scope and accessibility, which introduces potential biases and diminishes generalizability. In addition, they concentrate on analyzing a single dataset, potentially overlooking the inherent variability and complexity of EEG patterns associated with depression. Moreover, certain SOTA methods employ deep learning architectures with exponential time complexity, resulting in computationally intensive and time-consuming training procedures. Therefore, their practicability and applicability in real-world scenarios are compromised. To address these limitations, a novel integrated methodology that combines the advantages of phase space reconstruction and deep neural networks is proposed. It employs publicly available EEG datasets, mitigating the inherent biases of exclusive data sources. Moreover, the method incorporates reconstructed phase space analysis, a feature engineering technique that captures more accurately the complex EEG patterns associated with depression. Simultaneously, the incorporation of a deep neural network component guarantees optimal efficiency and accurate, seamless classification. Using publicly available datasets, cross-dataset validation, and a novel combination of reconstructed phase space analysis and deep neural networks, the proposed method circumvents the shortcomings of current state-of-the-art (SOTA) approaches. This innovation represents a significant advance in enhancing the accuracy of depression detection and provides the base for EEG-based depression assessment tools applicable to real-world settings. The findings of the study provide a more robust and efficient model, which increases classification precision and decreases computing burden. The study findings layout the foundation for scalable, accessible mental health solutions, identification of the pathological deficits in affected brain tissues, and demonstrate the potential of technology-driven approaches to support and guide depressed individuals and enhance mental health outcomes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":73399,"journal":{"name":"Intelligence-based medicine","volume":"8 ","pages":"Article 100123"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666521223000376/pdfft?md5=49e91661bcf14318d233d3bb140064a2&pid=1-s2.0-S2666521223000376-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138466610","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}

In-room scribes are associated with improvement in all aspects of physician satisfaction and increased productivity, though less is known about the use of other technologies such as Google Glass (GG), Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Machine-Based Learning (MBL) systems.
