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 Portable Scanner to Bring MRI to the Patient
A team of researchers in the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging at Massachusetts General Hospital has developed a low-cost, portable MRI scanner, reporting the device in the journal Nature Biomedical Engineering on November 23. In a recent conversation, lead author Clarissa Zimmerman Cooley g...
