Basic of machine learning and deep learning in imaging for medical physicists.

Abstract

The manuscript aims at providing an overview of the published algorithms/automation tool for artificial intelligence applied to imaging for Healthcare. A PubMed search was performed using the query string to identify the proposed approaches (algorithms/automation tools) for artificial intelligence (machine and deep learning) in a 5-year period. The distribution of manuscript in the various disciplines and the investigated image types according to the AI approaches are presented. The limitation and opportunity of AI application in the clinical practice or in the next future research is discussed.
