Faster sepsis diagnosis through hyperspectral imaging and AI
Sepsis is one of the most dangerous medical emergencies. The condition is the result of a misdirected immune response to an infection, which can quickly lead to organ failure and death. Every hour cou...

Really excited about sharing this paper hot off the press: doi.org/10.1016/j.me...
Invited to MedIA as one of the top MICCAI 2023 papers it presents large-scale analyses and concrete solutions related to prevalence shifts in medical image classification: 1/

🗞️Hot off the press🗞️: doi.org/10.1016/j.me... published in MedIA. Many image analysis problems are ambiguous, but validation of solutions to inverse problems is far from trivial. In this paper we take inspiration from the field of object detection: 1/n

Based on this #MICCAI2024 paper, we are currently preparing a new submission with a Bayesian approach to investigate the probability of false claims in medical imaging AI papers. The results are shocking… stay tuned⏰

Great collaboration with @gaelvaroquaux.bsky.social and O. Colliot
Love this. Bold face numbers in a table don't cut it:

"For >60% of papers, the 2nd-ranked method was within the CI of the 1st-ranked method. Current publications typically don't provide sufficient evidence to support which models could be translated into clinical practice" arxiv.org/abs/2409.17763
Confidence intervals uncovered: Are we ready for real-world medical imaging AI?
Medical imaging is spearheading the AI transformation of healthcare. Performance reporting is key to determine which methods should be translated into clinical practice. Frequently, broad conclusions ...

🎊Super excited to see that Metrics Reloaded is one of the most popular recent Nature Methods papers: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

In the pipeline: Metrics Reloaded-Surgery and Metrics Reloaded - Reconstruction/Synthesis. And of course Metrics Revolutions 🤫
