AI4RDD: Artificial Intelligence and Rare Disease Diagnosis: A proposal to improve the anamnesis process
Diagnosing rare and complex diseases presents significant challenges due to their inherent intricacies, limited data availability, and the need for highly skilled physicians. Traditional diagnostic processes use a decentralized approach in which patients often consult multiple specialists and visit various healthcare facilities to determine their condition. This conventional method frequently leads to delayed or inaccurate diagnoses. With over 10,000 rare diseases affecting more than 350 million people worldwide, the demand for innovative and effective diagnostic solutions is urgent and critical.
Artificial intelligence (AI) advancements present promising tools to tackle these challenges. AI-driven systems, such as Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSS) and Computer-Aided Diagnosis Systems (CAD), facilitate complex medical data processing, integrating diverse datasets, including imaging and genomics, and supporting evidence-based treatment decisions. These technologies have the potential to enable earlier and more accurate diagnoses, reduce unnecessary tests, and enhance overall healthcare efficiency.
This study proposes a framework for an AI-based CAD tool that can lead to a Distributed Knowledge Model. This framework seeks to improve diagnostic precision and enhance global patient outcomes for rare diseases. This framework emphasizes ethical AI implementation for better data integration and expert collaboration.
期刊介绍:
Image and Vision Computing has as a primary aim the provision of an effective medium of interchange for the results of high quality theoretical and applied research fundamental to all aspects of image interpretation and computer vision. The journal publishes work that proposes new image interpretation and computer vision methodology or addresses the application of such methods to real world scenes. It seeks to strengthen a deeper understanding in the discipline by encouraging the quantitative comparison and performance evaluation of the proposed methodology. The coverage includes: image interpretation, scene modelling, object recognition and tracking, shape analysis, monitoring and surveillance, active vision and robotic systems, SLAM, biologically-inspired computer vision, motion analysis, stereo vision, document image understanding, character and handwritten text recognition, face and gesture recognition, biometrics, vision-based human-computer interaction, human activity and behavior understanding, data fusion from multiple sensor inputs, image databases.
