Artificial Intelligence in Medical Imaging
A talk by Dr. Hamid Tizhoosh at the MCMASTER WORLD CONGRESS 2020
NOVEMBER 2, 2020 - NOVEMBER 27, 2020
AI is thought to represent not only a symbolic system of human thought, but a new era in human life. Whether we are aware of it or not, it is beginning to influence our global society. It is therefore imperative to understand its process, and implications, for our everyday lives. The world of Artificial Intelligence can be connected to multiple fields and industries. Moreover, this self learning, adaptive technology can be described as the future of our species, opening new doors and inspiring innovation in an ever-changing world.
