I'd even want to use similar tech on a personal level. I can't do a brain scan myself, but I can take a picture of a mole. I'm at high-risk for skin cancer, but I honestly wouldn't go see a doctor just for a change for a skin lesion that I'm not sure about. There's too many, and even with an above-average knowledge of what to look for, I have little confidence in my own observation. But if a neural network could tell me it's a higher risk, I'd for sure not wait until my next physical. Gotta be careful people who don't understand the risk & statistics don't depend on negative diagnoses too heavily, though.
- dontreact 7y agoI think you’ve misunderstood. This is not for diagnosis. This is so that they can run a crappier lower quality scan and then “enhance” it using neural nets.
- TallGuyShort 7y agoNo, I'm replying to the parent comment which is about critical decision support vs. removing doctor's from the decision process. I don't believe they were commenting on FastMRI vs. full MRI.
