Episode 2 - The Quest for Medical Data
Manage episode 311356026 series 3111780
For Deep Learning the availability of curated and annotated medical data is crucial. Artificial Intelligence in Medical Imaging is the electric F1 or Formula E for radiologists, a car waiting to be filled with fuel, which are the data. Besides the arrangements that are being made between academic institutions, research groups and hospitals or even with the big vendors (Siemens, Philips, GE, others) for obtaining those data, new initiatives popping up to obtain medical data directly from patients. An example of such an initiative is the Medical Data Donors http://www.medicaldatadonors.org/
This idea actually originates from Professor Andreas Maier, who is a computer scientist with a background in medical imaging, currently working as as head of the Medical Reconstruction Group at the Pattern Recognition lab of the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg in Germany. In this Episode you will be able to listen to the 35 min interview that I had with Prof. Maier.
