Background: Cancer is one of the life-threatening diseases which is affecting a large number of population worldwide. Cancer cells multiply inside the body without showing much symptoms on the surface of the skin, thereby making it difficult to predict and detect the onset of the disease. Many organizations are working towards automating the process of cancer detection with minimal false detection rates.

Introduction: The machine learning algorithms serve to be a promising alternative to support health care practitioners to rule out the disease and predict the growth with various imaging and statistical analysis tools. Medical practitioners are utilizing the output of these algorithms to diagnose and design the course of treatment. These algorithms are capable of finding out the risk level of the patient and can reduce the mortality rate concerning cancer disease.

Method: This article presents the existing state of art techniques for identifying cancer affecting human organs based on machine learning models. The supported set of imaging operations is also elaborated for each type of cancer.

Conclusion: The CAD tools are the aid for the diagnostic radiologists for preliminary investigations and detecting the nature of tumor cells.

Background: ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a rare but serious disease. Traditional case-identification methods using claims data can be time-intensive and may miss important subgroups. We hypothesized that a deep learning model analyzing electronic health records (EHR) can more accurately identify AAV cases.

Background: Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) especially antagonistic ones present significant risks to patient safety, underscoring the urgent need for reliable prediction methods. Recently, substructure-based DDI prediction has garnered much attention due to the dominant influence of functional groups and substructures on drug properties. However, existing approaches face challenges regarding the insufficient interpretability of identified substructures and the isolation of chemical substructures.
