Modern medicine generates, almost daily, huge amounts of
heterogeneous data. For example, medical data may contain SPECT
images, signals like ECG, clinical information like temperature,
cholesterol levels, etc., as well as the physician's
interpretation. Those who deal with such data understand that there
is a widening gap between data collection and data comprehension.
Computerized techniques are needed to help humans address this
problem. This volume is devoted to the relatively young and growing
field of medical data mining and knowledge discovery. As more and
more medical procedures employ imaging as a preferred diagnostic
tool, there is a need to develop methods for efficient mining in
databases of images. Other significant features are security and
confidentiality concerns. Moreover, the physician's interpretation
of images, signals, or other technical data, is written in
unstructured English which is very difficult to mine. This book
addresses all these specific features.
