Mitigating bias in radiology: The promise of topological data analysis and simplicial complexes
Abstract:
Topological Data Analysis (TDA) and simplicial complexes offer a novel approach to address biases in AI-assisted radiology. By capturing complex structures, n-way interactions, and geometric relationships in medical images, TDA enhances feature extraction, improves representation robustness, and increases interpretability. This mathematical framework has the potential to significantly improve the accuracy and fairness of radiological assessments, paving the way for more equitable patient care.

Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
