Deep Learning Algorithm Can Measure Disease Severity and Change on a Continuous Spectrum
Clinicians often use imaging to evaluate both the severity and progression of disease, in many cases by assigning severity to one of several categories based on the imaging findings and seeing whether and how the classification changes on follow-up. This approach can have its limits, though. B...
New Software Concept Promises Boost for Clinical Trial Recruitment
What if you held a clinical trial and nobody came? While plenty of patients are eager to participate, researchers often have difficulty reaching their target enrollments for clinical trials, the goal of which is to determine the safety and efficacy of new drugs or therapies before they are bro...
