This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer technology has impacted the practice of medicine in dramatic ways. Imaging techniques provide noninvasive tools which alter the diag nostic process. Sophisticated monitoring equipment presents new levels of detail for both patient management and research. In most of these high technology applications, the computer is embedded in the device; its presence is transparent to the user. There is also a growing number of applications in which the health care provider directly interacts with a computer. In many cases, these appli cations are limited to administrative functions, e.g., office practice man agement, location of hospital patients, appointments, and scheduling. Nevertheless, there also are instances of patient care functions such as results reporting, decision support, surveillance, and reminders. This series, Computers and Medicine, will focus upon the direct use of information systems as it relates to the medical community. After twenty-five years of experimentation and experience, there are many tested applications which can be implemented economically using the current generation of computers. Moreover, the falling cost of computers suggests that there will be even more extensive use in the near future. Yet there is a gap between current practice and the state-of-the-art.

This book was released on with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) in medicine is the result of a large amount of effort expended in the interface of medicine and computer science. As some CAD systems in medicine try to emulate the diagnostic decision-making process of medical experts, they can be considered as expert systems in medicine.
Download or read book Fundamentals of Clinical Data Science written by Pieter Kubben and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-21 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book comprehensively covers the fundamentals of clinical data science, focusing on data collection, modelling and clinical applications. Topics covered in the first section on data collection include: data sources, data at scale (big data), data stewardship (FAIR data) and related privacy concerns. Aspects of predictive modelling using techniques such as classification, regression or clustering, and prediction model validation will be covered in the second section. The third section covers aspects of (mobile) clinical decision support systems, operational excellence and value-based healthcare. Fundamentals of Clinical Data Science is an essential resource for healthcare professionals and IT consultants intending to develop and refine their skills in personalized medicine, using solutions based on large datasets from electronic health records or telemonitoring programmes. The book’s promise is “no math, no code”and will explain the topics in a style that is optimized for a healthcare audience.
Download or read book Computer aided Trauma Decision Making Using Machine Learning and Signal Processing written by Soo-Yeon Ji and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last 20 years, much work has focused on computer-aided clinical decision support systems due to a rapid increase in the need for management and processing of medical knowledge. Among all fields of medicine, trauma care has the highest need for proper information management due to the high prevalence of complex, life-threatening injuries. In particular, hemorrhage, which is encountered in most traumatic injuries, is a dominant factor in determining survival in both civilian and military settings. This complication can be better managed using a more in-depth analysis of patient information. Trauma physicians must make precise and rapid decisions, while considering a large number of patient variables and dealing with stressful environments. The ability of a computer-aided decision making system to rapidly analyze a patient2s condition can enable physicians to make more accurate decisions and thereby significantly improve the quality of care provided to patients. The first part of this study is focused on classification of highly complex databases using a hierarchical method which combines two complementary techniques: logistic regression and machine learning. This method, hereafter referred to as Classification Using Significant Features (CUSF), includes a statistical process to select the most significant variables from the correlated database. Then a machine learning algorithm is used to identify the data into classes using only the significant variables. As the main application addressed by CUSF, a set of computer-assisted rule-based trauma decision making system are designed. Computer aided decision-making system not only provides vital assistance for physicians in making fast and accurate decisions, proposed decisions are supported by transparent reasoning, but also can confirm a physicians' current knowledge, enabling them to detect complex patterns and information which may reveal new knowledge not easily visible to the human eyes. The second part of this study proposes an algorithm based on a set of novel wavelet features to analyze physiological signals, such as Electrocardiograms (ECGs) that can provide invaluable information typically invisible to human eyes. These wavelet-based method, hereafter referred to as Signal Analysis Based on Wavelet-Extracted Features (SABWEF), extracts information that can be used to detect and analyze complex patterns that other methods such as Fourier cannot deal with. For instance, SABWEF can evaluate the severity of hemorrhagic shock (HS) from ECG, while the traditional technique of applying power spectrum density (PSD) and fractal dimension (FD) cannot distinguish between the ECG patterns of patients with HS (i.e. blood loss), and those of subjects undergoing physical activity. In this study, as the main application of SABWEF, ECG is analyzed to distinguish between HS and physical activity, and show that SABWEF can be used in both civilian and military settings to detect HS and its extent. This is the first reported use of an ECG analysis method to classify blood volume loss. SABWEF has the capability to rapidly determine the degree of volume loss from hemorrhage, providing the chance for more rapid remote triage and decision making.

Download or read book Intelligent Medical Decision Support System Based on Imperfect Information written by Krzysztof Dyczkowski and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-01 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses computer-supported medical diagnosis with a particular focus on ovarian tumor diagnosis – since ovarian cancer is difficult to diagnose and has high mortality rates, especially in Central and Eastern Europe. It presents the theoretical foundations (both medical and mathematical) of the intelligent OvaExpert system, which supports decision-making in tumor diagnosis. OvaExpert was created primarily to help gynecologists predict the malignancy of ovarian tumors by applying the existing diagnostic models and using modern methods of computational intelligence that accommodate imprecise and imperfect medical data, both of which are common features of everyday medical practice. The book presents novel methods based on interval-valued fuzzy sets and the theory of their cardinalities.
