The Diagnostic Imagination in Radiology: Part 2
Abstract:
Developing algorithms for the improve- ment of diagnostic care leverages tech- nologies and techniques developed across industries that are exponentially being improved, developed, and tested. Machine learning means extracting patterns not only from patient level obser- vations or a radiologist's primary diag- nosis, but from secondary diagnoses, incidental findings, claims data and similarities with other patients for predictive benefit. The business model for radiology will be based on deeply knowing and leveraging existing data and generating data on patients that can be reused and made easily accessible for-future algo- rithms and changes in healthcare policy and reimbursement.

Radiological Investigation I: X-ray and CT
Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...
Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...

Appendicitis-II: Diagnostic Studies and Management
Diagnosing Appendicitis
It requires a multifaceted approach, starting with a detailed physical examination to pinpoint the location and nature of the pain and identify any associated symptoms. Laboratory tests play a crucial role. A complete Blood Count (CBC) typically reveals leukocytosis (an increased number of...
