Due to unprecedented progress of Artificial Intelligent (AI) in recent years, the importance of AI has been elevated and even mentioned as the core technology that will lead “The Fourth Industrial Revolution” in World Economic Forum (Davos Forum). The word “AI” has become the hottest keyword in almost every area and healthcare is no exception. The number of AI-focused healthcare startups has grown over 100 in 6 months starting from 32 in February of last year in USA. In addition, AI-focused application in medical imaging received the most attention at RSNA (Radiological Society of North America) last year. One plenary talk at RSNA stressed that fear of AI misguided radiologists and that radiologists should embrace AI as tools to reduce a workload and improve efficiency, precision and standardization. It needs to encourage them to accept AI as a tool for them, rather than as a threat to replacing radiologists. The deep learning technology is possibly able to go beyond the interpretation of medical images by radiologists if it can learn with enough data. However, since it is the physician's role and responsibility to confirm the disease with the medical images, the result provided by deep learning should only be used as a second opinion. The talk will introduce the novel application areas of deep learning and discuss new challenges for Samsung's medical image analysis and the initial results, as well as the opportunities for medical imaging with deep learning as a tool for medical imaging. It includes why Samsung pioneers this business with AI and how Samsung struggles for making it.
