AI-Driven Hybrid Neural Network Architecture for Medical Image Segmentation: A Novel Approach for Early Disease Detection
Abstract: One of the key factors in detecting early diseases is medical image segmentation. Medical image segmentation can be very complex due to the differences in image quality, noise, and specific anatomical structures of individual patients. A novel approach for a hybrid neural network structure that combines the power of convolutional neural networks, and the transformer-based models is described here for improved accuracy and robustness of medical image segmentation. Unlike traditional …

Treatment of Diseases Using Stem Cells
Abstract: The doctors performed the first successful transplantation of bone marrow in 1968. Bone marrow contains somatic stem cells that can create the majority of the distinctive cell types that make up our blood. It is transplanted routinely to treat an assortment of blood and bone marrow ailments, blood cancers, and immune disorders. More recently, stem cells from the blood stream (called peripheral blood stem cells) and umbilical line stem cells …
