  • Publication number: 20210183485
    Abstract: A global multi-label generating system is operable to receive a plurality of medical scans and a corresponding plurality of global labels that each correspond to one of a set of abnormality classes. A computer vision model is generated by training on the medical scans and the global labels. Probability matrix data, which includes a set of image patch probability values that each indicate a probability that a corresponding one of the set of abnormality classes is present in each of a set of image patches, is generated by performing an inference function that utilizes the computer vision model on a new medical scan. Global probability data that includes a set of global probability values each indicating a probability that a corresponding one of the set of abnormality classes is present in the new medical scan is generated based on the probability matrix data for transmission to a client device.

    Abstract: The de-identification system can be operable to receive, from at least one first entity, a medical scan and a corresponding medical report. A set of patient identifiers can be identified in a subset of fields of a header of the medical scan. A de-identified medical scan can be generated by replacing the subset of fields of the header of the medical scan with a corresponding set of anonymized fields generated by performing a header anonymization function. A subset of patient identifiers of the set of patient identifiers can be identified in the medical report. A de-identified medical report can be generated by replacing each of the subset of patient identifiers with corresponding anonymized placeholder text generated by performing a text anonymization function on the subset of patient identifiers. The de-identified medical scan and the de-identified medical report can be transmitted to a second entity via a network.
