Medical images, in various formats, are used by clinicians to identify abnormalities or markers associated with certain conditions, such as cancers, diseases, abnormalities or other adverse health conditions. Deep learning algorithms use vast volumes of data to train the computer to recognise certain features in the images that are associated with the disease or condition that you wish to identify. Whilst analysing the images by eye can take a lot of time, deep learning algorithms have the benefit of reviewing medical images at a faster rate than a human can, which aids the clinician, speeding up diagnoses and freeing up clinicians' time for other duties. Deep Learning in Medical Image Processing and Analysis introduces the fundamentals of deep learning for biomedical image analysis for applications including ophthalmology, cancer detection and heart disease. The book considers the principles of multi-instance feature selection, swarm optimisation, parallel processing models, artificial neural networks, support vector machines, as well as their design and optimisation, in biomedical applications. Topics such as data security, patient confidentiality, effectiveness and reliability will also be discussed. Written by an international team of experts, this edited book covers principles and applications for industry and academic researchers, scientists, engineers, developers, and designers in the fields of machine learning, deep learning, AI, image processing, signal processing, computer science or related fields. It will also be of interest to standards bodies and regulators, and clinicians using deep learning models.

This book provides various insights into machine learning techniques in healthcare system data and its analysis. Recent technological advancements in the healthcare system represent cutting-edge innovations and global research successes in performance modelling, analysis, and applications. The extensive use of machine learning in numerous industries, including healthcare, has been made possible by advancements in data technologies, including storage capacity, processing capability, and data transit speeds. The need for a personalized medicine or ""precision medicine"" approach to healthcare has been highlighted by current trends in medicine due to the complexity of providing effective healthcare to each individual. Personalized medicine aims to identify, forecast, and analyze diagnostic decisions using vast volumes of healthcare data so that doctors may then apply them to each unique patient. These data may include, but are not limited to, information on a person's genes or family history, medical imaging data, drug combinations, patient health outcomes at the community level, and natural language processing of pre-existing medical documentation. The introduction of digital technology in the healthcare industry is marked by ongoing difficulties with implementation and use. Slow progress has been made in unifying different healthcare systems, and much of the world still lacks a fully integrated healthcare system. The intrinsic complexity and development of human biology, as well as the differences across patients, have repeatedly demonstrated the significance of the human element in the diagnosis and treatment of illnesses. But as digital technology develops, healthcare providers will undoubtedly need to use it more and more to give patients the best treatment possible.
