Nicholas Walker describes how ML is being used to advance healthcare and medical <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kolabtree.com\/blog\/ensuring-reproducibility-in-ai-driven-research-how-freelance-experts-can-help-in-biotech-and-healthcare\/\">research<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The number of patients in hospitals is growing rapidly, which means it\u2019s getting more and more challenging to analyze, and even record, all the data on patients today. A good solution to this problem is machine learning, which makes it easier to automate the analysis of data and makes the healthcare system more robust. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kolabtree.com\/find-an-expert\/subject\/machine-learning?utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Post&amp;utm_campaign=ML-Healthcare\">Machine learning<\/a>, as applied to healthcare, is the confluence of two fields: medical science and computer science. This alliance has allowed the medical field to make huge advances in healthcare.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is plenty of research being carried out in this area. Google, for example, has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mercurynews.com\/2017\/03\/03\/google-computers-trained-to-detect-cancer\/\">invented an <\/a><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mercurynews.com\/2017\/03\/03\/google-computers-trained-to-detect-cancer\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">algorithm<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that detects cancer cells. There are many other advances being made as well, which we shall talk about in this article.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Healthcare_Applications_of_Machine_Learning\"><\/span><b>Healthcare Applications of Machine Learning<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The purpose of machine learning in computer science is to make the machine more efficient and reliable. In healthcare, the machine is an extension and force multiplier for the doctor\u2019s brain. After all, a patient will always need the touch and care of a human being, which a machine cannot provide. The work of a machine, therefore, is not to replace the doctor, but rather to help him or her to provide better service and care.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_The_Diagnosis_of_Heart_Disease\"><\/span><b>1. The Diagnosis of Heart Disease<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The heart is one of the primary organs in our bodies. There are a variety of heart ailments that we suffer from, such as coronary heart disease, coronary artery disease, and so on. Researchers are in the process of developing machine learning algorithms to make it easier to diagnose heart disease. It is a highly researched topic globally and an automated system for the diagnosis of heart disease would be one of the greatest feats of human achievement in the 21<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">st<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> century.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Researchers are working on Support Vector Machines, Na\u00efve Bayes, and other forms of supervised machine learning algorithms to solve the problem of heart disease detection and diagnosis.<\/strong> One of the most important datasets in this field is the one from <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.ics.uci.edu\/ml\/datasets\/Heart+Disease\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">UCI<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Which can be used to train algorithms.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_The_Prediction_of_Diabetes\"><\/span><b>2. The Prediction of Diabetes<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diabetes is not only a dangerous disease, but it also happens to be one of the most common diseases in the world. It is also a gateway disease, being itself one of the leading causes of other diseases and leading its victims inexorably towards death.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diabetes has the ability to damage various parts of the body, such as the heart, kidney, and the nervous system. Machine learning is being looked into as a way of detecting the markers of diabetes early enough so the lives of patients can be saved.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many algorithms that can be used to predict diabetes, including Na\u00efve Bayes, Decision Trees, Random Forests, and KNNs. The Na\u00efve Bayes outperforms the others when it comes to accuracy because of how good its performance is and how little time it takes to do computation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_The_Prediction_of_Liver_Disease\"><\/span><b>3. The Prediction of Liver Disease<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The liver is yet another organ that is among the primary organs in the body. It is crucial for metabolism and can be attacked by a host of diseases, including liver cancer, chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and many others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data mining and machine learning concepts have recently come into play in the quest for a system to predict liver disease. To be honest, it is quite a challenging endeavor to try and predict liver disease, partly because there are so many possible diseases that could attack the liver and also partly because there is such a huge volume of data on the subject.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Researchers, however, are doing the best they can to work around these issues. A lot has been written by various <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/edubirdie.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">essay writing services in the united states<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> about the use of machine learning techniques like clustering, classification, and so on. There are also available datasets researchers are using to develop their algorithms.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_ML_Applications_in_Surgery\"><\/span><b>4.

It isn\u2019t just one big field but an umbrella category with about 4 sub-fields: surgical skill evaluation, automatic suturing, surgical workflow modeling, and improvement of robotic surgical materials.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Suturing is the process of sewing up a wound. When it\u2019s automatic, it makes the surgical procedure take a lot less time and relieves stress from the surgeon. Researchers are putting in a lot of work in this field, applying the principles of machine learning to the different aspects of surgery and working toward a future where robot-assisted surgery will be both effective and safe, and perhaps even minimally invasive.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In neurosurgery, for example, robots are not yet as effective as neurosurgeons would like them to be. As a result, virtually all of the procedures are manual and the whole process is quite time consuming. There also isn\u2019t any automatic feedback. The development of machine learning in this field will prove greatly beneficial.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_The_Detection_of_Cancer\"><\/span><b>5.
