  • Artificial intelligence in cancer imaging: Clinical challenges and applications. (330 citations)
  • Computerized Detection of Pulmonary Nodules on CT Scans (325 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Maryellen L. Giger mainly investigates Artificial intelligence, Radiology, Computer-aided diagnosis, Breast cancer and Mammography. Maryellen L. Giger combines subjects such as Computer vision and Pattern recognition with her study of Artificial intelligence. Her Radiology research incorporates elements of Lesion and Malignancy.

Her work deals with themes such as Image processing, Breast ultrasound, Feature and Medical imaging, which intersect with Computer-aided diagnosis. Her Breast cancer study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Pathology, Magnetic resonance imaging and Receiver operating characteristic. Her work on Digital mammography and Breast imaging as part of general Mammography study is frequently linked to Workstation, bridging the gap between disciplines.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Artificial intelligence (39.14%)
  • Radiology (29.87%)
  • Computer-aided diagnosis (26.20%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Artificial intelligence (39.14%)
  • Breast cancer (26.52%)
  • Receiver operating characteristic (15.81%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Maryellen L. Giger focuses on Artificial intelligence, Breast cancer, Receiver operating characteristic, Deep learning and Pattern recognition. Convolutional neural network, Segmentation, Medical imaging, Feature extraction and Support vector machine are subfields of Artificial intelligence in which her conducts study. Her Breast cancer research includes themes of Radiomics, Radiology, Feature and Confidence interval.

Her research investigates the connection between Radiology and topics such as Malignancy that intersect with issues in Breast imaging. Her Receiver operating characteristic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Lesion, Multiple comparisons problem, Computer-aided diagnosis, Magnetic resonance imaging and Feature selection. As a part of the same scientific family, Maryellen L. Giger mostly works in the field of Pattern recognition, focusing on Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and, on occasion, Recurrent neural network.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Artificial intelligence in cancer imaging: Clinical challenges and applications. (330 citations)
  • Deep learning in medical imaging and radiation therapy. (281 citations)
  • Machine Learning in Medical Imaging. (212 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Artificial intelligence
  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine

Artificial intelligence, Breast cancer, Receiver operating characteristic, Radiology and Medical imaging are her primary areas of study. Her study in Artificial intelligence is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cancer and Pattern recognition. Her Pattern recognition study combines topics in areas such as Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Mammography and Region of interest.

The concepts of her Breast cancer study are interwoven with issues in Magnetic resonance imaging, Radiomics and Oncology. Her Radiology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Lesion, Area under the curve, Cross-validation, Progression-free survival and Luminal a. Maryellen L. Giger interconnects Contextual image classification, Image segmentation and Medical physics in the investigation of issues within Medical imaging.
