"Artificial Intelligence+" is a key strategic direction that has garnered the attention of several global medical device manufacturers and internet companies. Large hospitals are actively involved in different types of medical AI research and cooperation projects. Medical AI is expected to create numerous opportunities and advancements in areas such as medical imaging, computer aided diagnostics and clinical decision support, new drug development, personal healthcare, pathology analysis, and genetic disease prediction. On the contrary, some studies on the limitations and problems in current conditions such as lack of clinical validation, difficulty in performance comparison, lack of interoperability, adversarial attacks, and computational manipulations are being published. Overall, the medical AI field is in a paradigm shift. Regarding international standardization, the work on the top 10 standardization issues is witnessing rapid progress and the competition for standard development has become fierce.

Artificial intelligence technology in the medical field initially focused on analysis and algorithm development, but it is gradually changing to web application development for service as a product. This paper describes a Urinary Stone segmentation model in abdominal CT images and an artificial intelligence web application based on it. To implement this, a model was developed using U-Net, a fully-convolutional network-based model of the end-to-end method proposed for the purpose of image segmentation in the medical imaging field. And for web service development, it was developed based on AWS cloud using a Python-based micro web framework called Flask. Finally, the result predicted by the urolithiasis segmentation model by model serving is shown as the result of performing the AI web application service. We expect that our proposed AI web application service will be utilized for screening test.

This study analyzes the 'performance efficiency' of AI-based reading assistance systems in the field of radiology by measuring their 'time behavior' properties. Due to the increase in medical images and the limited number of radiologists, the adoption of AI-based solutions is escalating, stimulating a multitude of studies in this area. Contrary to the majority of past research which centered on AI's diagnostic precision, this study underlines the significance of time behavior. Using 50 chest X-ray PA images, the system processed images in an average of 15.24 seconds, demonstrating high consistency and reliability, which is on par with leading global AI platforms, suggesting the potential for significant improvements in radiology workflow efficiency. We expect AI technology to play a large role in the field of radiology and help improve overall healthcare quality and efficiency.

In the medical field, artificial intelligence has been used in various ways with many developments. However, most artificial intelligence technologies are developed so that one model can perform only one task, which is a limitation in designing the complex reading process of doctors with artificial intelligence. Multi-task learning is an optimal way to overcome the limitations of single-task learning methods. Multi-task learning can create a model that is efficient and advantageous for generalization by simultaneously integrating various tasks into one model. This study investigated the concepts, types, and similar concepts as multi-task learning, and examined the status and future possibilities of multi-task learning in the medical research.

With the entry into the aging society, we are increasingly interested in wellness, and personalized medical services through artificial intelligence are expanding. In order to provide personalized medical services, it is difficult to provide accurate medical analysis services only with the existing hospital system components PM / PA, OCS, EMR, PACS, and LIS. Therefore, it is necessary to present the hospital system model and the construction plan suitable for personalized medical service. Currently, some medical cloud services and artificial intelligence diagnosis services using Watson are being introduced in domestic. However, there are not many examples of systematic hospital system construction. Therefore, this paper proposes a hospital system model suitable for personalized medical service. To do this, we design a model that integrates medical big data construction and AI medical analysis system into the existing hospital system components, and suggest development plan of each module. The proposed model is meaningful as a basic research that provides guidelines for the construction of new hospital system in the future.

저출산 고령화 사회로의 진입은 대한민국뿐만 아니라 전 세계적으로 많은 사회 문제를 야기하고 있다. 그 중에서 고령 인구 증가로 인한 의료 수요 증가와 이를 뒷받침 할 의료인력 부족은 곧 다가올 사회문제이다. 4차 산업 혁명으로 인해 다양한 사회문제에 대한 혁신적인 해법들이 제시되고 있는데, 본 기고문에서는 다가올 고령화 사회에서 의료인력 부족 등에 의한 해결법으로 원격의료 지원을 위한 인공지능 활용을 다루고자 한다. 병 진단 및 예측을 위한 여러 가지 인공지능 알고리즘은 이미 많이 개발 되어 있으나, 일반적으로 딥러닝에 많이 쓰이는 인공신경망 구조인 합성곱 뉴럴네트워크(convolution neural network)나 기존 퍼셉트론(perceptron) 구조에서 벗어나 확률론적 인공신경망 중에 하나인 베이지안 뉴럴네트워크(Bayesian neural network)를 다루고자 한다. 그중에서 연산효율적이며 뉴로모픽 하드웨어로 구현 가능성이 높고 실제 진단 예측(diagnosis prediction) 문제 해결에 강점을 보이는 알고리즘으로써 naive Bayes classifer를 활용한 연구를 소개하고자 한다.

In the medical field, disease diagnosis and prediction research using artificial intelligence technology is being actively conducted. It is being released as a variety of products for disease diagnosis and prediction, which are most widely used in the application of artificial intelligence technology based on medical images. Artificial intelligence is being applied to diagnose diseases, to classify diseases into benign and malignant, and to separate disease regions for use in identification or reading according to the risk of disease. Recently, in connection with cloud technology, its utility as a service product is increasing. Among the diseases dealt with in this paper, liver disease is a disease with very high risk because it is difficult to diagnose early due to the lack of pain. Artificial intelligence technology was introduced based on medical images as a non-invasive diagnostic method for diagnosing these diseases. We describe the development of a web service to help the most meaningful clinical reading of liver cirrhosis patients. Then, it shows the web service process and shows the operation screen of each process and the final result screen. It is expected that the proposed service will be able to diagnose liver cirrhosis at an early stage and help patients recover through rapid treatment.

의료 데이터를 이용하여 인공지능 기계학습 연구를 수행할 때 자주 마주하는 문제는 데이터 불균형, 데이터 부족 등이며 특히 정제된 충분한 데이터를 구하기 힘들다는 것이 큰 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 이를 해결하기 위해 GAN(Generative Adversarial Network) 기반 고해상도 의료 영상을 생성하는 프레임워크를 개발하고자 한다. 각 해상도 마다 Scale 의 Gradient 를 동시에 학습하여 빠르게 고해상도 이미지를 생성해낼 수 있도록 했다. 고해상도 이미지를 생성하는 Neural Network 를 고안하였으며, PGGAN, Style-GAN 과의 성능 비교를 통해 제안된 모델이 양질의 고해상도 의료영상 이미지를 더 빠르게 생성할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 이를 통해 인공지능 기계학습 연구에 있어서 의료 영상의 데이터 부족, 데이터 불균형 문제를 해결할 수 있는 Data augmentation 이나, Anomaly detection 등의 연구에 적용할 수 있다.
