The Evolution of AI in Healthcare - Mantra AI

Skin cancer, the most common human malignancy is primarily diagnosed visually, beginning with an initial clinical screening followed by dermoscopic analysis, a biopsy and histopathological examination. Owing to the fine-grained variability in the appearance of skin lesions it is quite difficult to classify. However, deep convolutional neural network (CNN) when trained end-to-end using a vast dataset of images, using only pixels and disease labels as inputs can achieve performance on par with all tested experts.
