Abstract: The application discloses a method, apparatus and system for scanning an animal. The method includes obtaining a species of an animal to be scanned, identifying a type of an animal cabin where the animal to be scanned is located, and determining whether the species of the animal to be scanned matches the type of the animal cabin, determining and presenting a corresponding scanning protocol that matches the species of the animal to be scanned if the species of the animal to be scanned matches the type of the animal cabin, and perform a scan according to the corresponding scanning protocol, or according to a user-defined scanning protocol.

Abstract: A liver fibrosis assessment model includes following establishing steps. A reference database is obtained, wherein the reference database includes a plurality of reference blood test data. A preprocessing step of the blood test data is performed. A feature extracting step is performed, wherein the feature extracting step is for extracting at least one eigenvalue according to the reference database. A normalizing step of the blood test data is performed. A classifying step is performed, wherein the classifying step is for achieving a convergence of the normalized reference blood test data by using a gradient boosting algorithm so as to obtain the liver fibrosis assessment model. The liver fibrosis assessment model is used to assess whether a subject suffers from liver fibrosis and predict a degree of liver fibrosis of the subject.
