Interpretation of optical coherence tomography by artificial intelligence

Modern ophthalmology faces a growing trend of ocular pathologies associated with bad habits, poor diet and increasing life expectancy of the population. The pressure on medical institutions requires finding an optimal technical solution that would speed up the processing of optical coherence tomography (OCT) images. Artificial intelligence-based platforms such as Retina AI can help ophthalmologists …

Classification of white blood cells using a neural network

White blood cells (leukocytes) in the human immune system protect against infection. They include neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, monocytes, and lymphocytes, each of them making up a certain percentage and performing specific functions. Traditionally, the clinical laboratory procedure of quantifying specific types of white blood cells has been an integral part of a general blood test …

How computer vision works in medicine: let’s look at an example

Ultrasound is the primary method for diagnosing breast cancer, and the speed of this diagnosis, together with accuracy, has a direct impact on cure rates and mortality. Analyzing ultrasound images is one of the most challenging tasks, so special machine learning techniques are now being applied to biomedical images to achieve high classification rates – …

Artificial intelligence and medicine

Over the life, people undergo dozens of examinations and receive diagnoses and appointments – but it seems that they are tired of taking risks in the process: doctors may be wrong, treatment may not be appropriate, even surgery may not be the right decision. So when medical prognostics using big data analytics became available, it …

Dual network problem – an interesting case from our practice

An interesting network management case with no simple solution Setup There are nodes based on Raspberry PI. Using carrier boards, every node has two ethernet ports. Nodes connected to two switches simultaneously. Every ethernet port on network has a unique mac address. Also, the switches. Thus with 16 devices, each with two ethernet ports and two …

Computer Vision history and trends

When there were tools for inputting images into a computer and computers became powerful enough to process them, it became possible to use computers for image analysis. Of course, from an applied point of view, this made sense in cases where a computer could perform processing faster or better than a person. In the early …

Recent trends in IoT market: Analysis, Generalization and Prediction

Why IoT ? The Internet of Things (IoT) is the set of “smart” electronic devices, that connected into network and can communicate seamlessly over the Internet. IoT can monitor your home, manufacture, farm, and even heart rate and blood oxygenation. IoT also can observe the weather, water quality, and persons actions in some area, and …
