CT or MRI may be used to find the area of the brain that was affected by the stroke. The pictures may also show bleeding in your brain. Do not enter the MRI room with anything metal. Metal objects in the MRI scanner can cause serious injury. Tell the healthcare provider if you have...

You may be given contrast liquid to help your brain show up better in the pictures. Tell the healthcare provider if you have ever had an allergic reaction to contrast liquid. Do not enter the MRI room with anything metal. Metal can cause serious injury. Tell the healthcare provider if ...
A special kind of MRI called a functional MRI (fMRI) maps brain activity. This test looks at blood flow in your brain to see which areas become active when you do certain tasks. An fMRI can detect brain problems, such as the effects of a stroke, Alzheimer’s, or abrain injury. It c...
Machine learning and AI are often discussed together, and the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, but they don’t mean the same thing. In short, all machine learning is AI, but not all AI is machine learning. Key Takeaways Machine learning is a subset of AI. The four most common ...
A man in his 60s visited a doctor for a checkup due to frequent headaches. The test results were normal. Still worried, he visited another hospital, but the results were the same. "I'm sick, and I don't understand how CT and MRI show nothing wrong," he s
Because the algorithm adjusts as it evaluates training data, the process of exposure and calculation around new data trains the algorithm to become better at what it does. The algorithm is the computational part of the project, while the term “model” is a trained algorithm that can be used...
heart program which is often offered through hospitals. He may also benefit from seeing a dietitian to see if he can lower his cholesterol levels through diet. After he is treated and on his way to recovery, he may wish to start a cardiac rehab exercise program to gain back his strength....
Development of successful therapies for neurological disorders depends on our ability to diagnose and monitor the progression of underlying pathologies at the cellular level. Physics and physiology limit the resolution of human MRI to millimeters, three orders of magnitude coarser than the cell dimensions...
CT or MRI pictures may show where the stroke happened and any damage to your brain. You may be given contrast liquid to help your skull and brain show up better in the pictures. Tell the healthcare provider if you have ever had an allergic reaction to contrast liquid. Do not enter the...
