Learning objectives
In this exhibit, we discuss the six key must-have features on any analytical platform that is intended for the validation of AI algorithms.
With the recent developments in machine learning and especially deep learning, a lot of companies are trying to develop solutions for assisting radiologists in medical imaging. We have developed a system that combines statistics with medical inputs to provide insights and validate deep learning algorithms at scale. One of the key challenges is the variety of output from these algorithms. The output...
Background
We believe that the usage of such tools will decrease the time required for validating the deep learning algorithms in healthcare setup and at the same time, will provide useful insights to the companies which will help them in improving the algorithm further.
Findings and procedure details
Ability to fetch data from PACS: To conduct a study, the hospital/clinic should be able to easily search and extract cases. The tool should have features to filter cases on the basis of modalities, diseases, and other related fields. In addition to these, advanced features like semantic search can be really useful to capture the diversity of diseases and modalities. Our system provides features to include/exclude modalities and diseases.
Client-side anonymization: Data privacy and security is an important aspect of any validation study. The system...
Conclusion
Once the arbitration process is done, the system should generate a summary of the algorithm’s performance on a set of parameters. These parameters can vary depending on the type of modality and the study.
