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.

Download or read book Medical Decision Making written by Harold C. Sox and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-05-08 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medical Decision Making provides clinicians with a powerful framework for helping patients make decisions that increase the likelihood that they will have the outcomes that are most consistent with their preferences. This new edition provides a thorough understanding of the key decision making infrastructure of clinical practice and explains the principles of medical decision making both for individual patients and the wider health care arena. It shows how to make the best clinical decisions based on the available evidence and how to use clinical guidelines and decision support systems in electronic medical records to shape practice guidelines and policies. Medical Decision Making is a valuable resource for all experienced and learning clinicians who wish to fully understand and apply decision modelling, enhance their practice and improve patient outcomes. “There is little doubt that in the future many clinical analyses will be based on the methods described in Medical Decision Making, and the book provides a basis for a critical appraisal of such policies.” - Jerome P. Kassirer M.D., Distinguished Professor, Tufts University School of Medicine, US and Visiting Professor, Stanford Medical School, US

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 123 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.
Download or read book Artificial Intelligence in Decision Support Systems for Diagnosis in Medical Imaging written by Kenji Suzuki and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers the first comprehensive overview of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in decision support systems for diagnosis based on medical images, presenting cutting-edge insights from thirteen leading research groups around the world. Medical imaging offers essential information on patients’ medical condition, and clues to causes of their symptoms and diseases. Modern imaging modalities, however, also produce a large number of images that physicians have to accurately interpret. This can lead to an “information overload” for physicians, and can complicate their decision-making. As such, intelligent decision support systems have become a vital element in medical-image-based diagnosis and treatment. Presenting extensive information on this growing field of AI, the book offers a valuable reference guide for professors, students, researchers and professionals who want to learn about the most recent developments and advances in the field.

Download or read book Computer Methods and Programs for Medical Decision Making written by Mourad Said and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-20 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, a strategy for medical decision diagnosis in cardiac imaging with MRI was depicted. This approach stipulates to conceive a 5D model, which depends on five dimensions: anatomical structure of the heart in 3D, temporal dimensions as well as a functional dimension of blood flow for the detection of stenosis and valvular regurgitation. Furthermore, a comparative study of the practical tools, which exploit the fifth dimension of flow for the deduction of the medical inference in the clinical routine. This contribution was considered for a stenosis aorta, which consists to make a 3D model and to solve the Navier-stokes equations for the laminar and viscous blood fluid to deduce the proposed model 5D (3D+time+flow). The extraction of measurements (field of the vortex, masses of flow, static pressure, Reynolds number) based on the fifth dimension is used to classify the area and the degree of stenosis. With the increasing demand for high-resolution simulations, it has become important to study the cost and response time of digital solvers that could take benefit of recent architectures including multi-core processors. In this work, the simulation, an efficient solver for the resolution based on the heterogeneous (CPU/GPU) architectures of Navier-Stokes (NS) equations relating to flows of incompressible fluids was assessed.
