AI for Healthcare

The AI for Healthcare program offers two courses that apply AI to 2D and 3D medical imaging data. The first course covers fundamental skills needed to work with 2D imaging data, such as extracting images from DICOM files, building AI models, and obtaining regulatory approval. The course project involves training a CNN to classify chest X-rays for the presence of pneumonia and writing an FDA validation plan. The second course covers 3D imaging data, including clinical fundamentals, imaging modalities, and common analysis tasks. It also explores how AI can be integrated into the clinical workflow. Both courses are designed to teach students how to derive clinically relevant insights from medical imaging data using AI.

Excellent product, well-balanced between learning material and evaluation. The projects are amazing. They only need to improve the maintenance of the workspaces, which sometimes have package version conflicts.
