The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in data-driven medicine has revolutionized healthcare, presenting practitioners with unprecedented tools for diagnosis and personalized therapy. However, this progress comes with a critical concern: the security and privacy of sensitive patient data. As healthcare increasingly leans on AI, the need for robust solutions to safeguard patient information has become more pressing than ever. Federated Learning and Privacy-Preserving in Healthcare AI emerges as the definitive solution to balancing medical progress with patient data security. This carefully curated volume not only outlines the challenges of federated learning but also provides a roadmap for implementing privacy-preserving AI systems in healthcare. By decentralizing the training of AI models, federated learning mitigates the risks associated with centralizing patient data, ensuring that critical information never leaves its original location. Aimed at healthcare professionals, AI experts, policymakers, and academics, this book not only delves into the technical aspects of federated learning but also fosters a collaborative approach to address the multifaceted challenges at the intersection of healthcare and AI.

Despite success with treatment when diagnosed early, breast cancer is still one of the most fatal forms of cancer for women. Imaging diagnosis is still one of the most efficient ways to detect early breast changes with mammography among the most used techniques. However, there are other techniques that have emerged as alternatives or even complementary tests in the early detection of breast lesions (e.g., breast thermography and electrical impedance tomography). Artificial intelligence can be used to optimize image diagnosis, increasing the reliability of the reports and supporting professionals who do not have enough knowledge or experience to make good diagnoses. Biomedical Computing for Breast Cancer Detection and Diagnosis is a collection of research that presents a review of the physiology and anatomy of the breast; the dynamics of breast cancer; principles of pattern recognition, artificial neural networks, and computer graphics; and the breast imaging techniques and computational methods to support and optimize the diagnosis. While highlighting topics including mammograms, thermographic imaging, and intelligent systems, this book is ideally designed for medical oncologists, surgeons, biomedical engineers, medical imaging professionals, cancer researchers, academicians, and students in medicine, biomedicine, biomedical engineering, and computer science.

This book examines deep learning-based approaches in the field of cancer diagnostics, as well as pre-processing techniques, which are essential to cancer diagnostics.

Accurate imaging of cancerous tissue is a critical step in the fight to lower cancer mortality rates, and computer-aided detection and diagnosis (CAD) technologies play a key role. Over the last three decades, the field of diagnostic cancer imaging has witnessed a remarkable evolution that has affected virtually every aspect of research and clinical management of cancer. This book discusses recent high-quality research in key technologies used in CAD systems; the 11 chapters cover different types of cancers (including skin, breast, prostate, and colon cancer) and different scientific fields (such as biomedicine, imaging, image processing, pattern recognition, and system analysis) to further the major goals of current cancer imaging: • Provide more reliable disease characterization through the synthesis of anatomic, functional, and molecular imaging information; • Refine and optimize imaging capabilities in oncology; • Establish new imaging modalities and findings, and discover the potential use of these techniques; • Find more individualized assessment of tumor biology, personalized treatments, and response to treatment; • Develop image-processing-based cancer control systems; and • Explore imaging capabilities and strategies to streamline cancer drug development.
