From Pixels to Diagnoses: Deep Learning's Impact on Medical Image Processing-A Survey

Abstract

In healthcare, medical image processing is considered one of the most significant procedures used in diagnosing pathological conditions. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), ultrasound, and X-ray visualization have been used. Health institutions are seeking to use artificial intelligence techniques to develop medical image processing and reduce the burden on physicians and healthcare workers. Deep learning has occupied an important place in the healthcare field, supporting specialists in analysing and processing medical images. This article will present a comprehensive survey on the significance of deep learning in the areas of segmentation, classification, disease diagnosis, image generation, image transformation, and image enhancement. This survey seeks to provide an overview of the significance of deep learning in the early detection of diseases, studying tumor localization behaviors, predicting malignant diseases, and determining the suitable treatment for a patient. This article concluded that deep learning is of great significance in improving healthcare, enabling healthcare workers to make diagnoses quickly and more accurately, and improving patient outcomes by providing them with appropriate treatment strategies.
