Broad Institute

A novel approach in AI successfully identifies ambiguity in medical imaging.

Researchers from MIT, in collaboration with the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard and Massachusetts General Hospital, have introduced a new artificial intelligence (AI) tool known as Tyche, which can provide multiple, plausible image segmentation possibilities for a given medical image. Unlike conventional AI tools, which typically offer a single definitive interpretation, Tyche generates a…

A novel artificial intelligence approach has been developed to recognize ambiguity in medical imaging.

Biomedicine often requires the annotation of pixels in a medical image to identify critical structures such as organs or cells, a process known as segmentation. In this context, artificial intelligence (AI) models can be useful to clinicians by highlighting pixels indicating potential disease or anomalies. However, decision-making in medical image segmentation is frequently complex, with…
