Abstract

Mechanisms for indicating estimated pulmonary embolism data are provided, the mechanisms including: receiving medical data; processing the medical data to provide processed data; evaluating the processed data using a first machine learning algorithm using a hardware processor; generating the estimated pulmonary embolism data based on the evaluating the processed data; and causing the expected outcome to be presented to a user. In some of these mechanisms, the medical data is 3D matrix image data from a computed tomography (CT) scan. In some of these embodiments, processing the medical data includes at least one of decompressing, intensity scaling, and resizing the medical data. In some of these mechanisms, the first machine learning algorithm is a deep convolutional neural network.
