Artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine, such as machine or deep learning, has evolved drastically in recent years. It is being applied to a broad spectrum of problems, however, there are few AI algorithms that have transitioned to clinic and disseminated into practice. Translation of AI algorithms that use medical imaging requires understanding of fundamental imaging physics. Imaging data has some degree of noise, and AI algorithms have some degree of inaccuracy.
Dr. Jess Scholey is an Assistant Professor, Physics Director of the MRI Simulation Program, and Physics Lead of the Proton Ocular Program in the Department of Radiation Oncology at the University of California, San Francisco. She received her BA in Physics from UC Berkeley and went on to receive her MSc and clinical residency training in medical physics from The University of Pennsylvania. Upon completion of her clinical training and ABR certification, she received her PhD from the Joint UC Berkeley-UCSF Bioengineering Program.
