Problem Definition:
In the healthcare domain, especially in radiology, the excessive information in MRIs reports
creates a big problem These reports usually consist of the written descriptions, which most
commonly make it very difficult and time-consuming for the healthcare professionals to find
critical information. Besides the wasting of valuable time, the manual extraction of key terms is
usually prone to human errors that can mislead patient care and diagnosis.
Project Objectives:
● Develop a robust, automated system capable of extracting relevant keywords from MRI
reports efficiently.
● Improve the speed and accuracy of information retrieval, facilitating quicker decision-
making for healthcare professionals.
● Enhance the overall efficiency of healthcare practitioners in interpreting and
comprehending complex MRI reports.
● Mitigate the risk of human errors associated with manual keyword extraction, ensuring
the reliability of medical data.
Methodology:
Data Collection:
-Gather a diverse dataset of MRI reports, ensuring representation of various medical conditions
and formats.
-Include labeled data, where keywords are manually identified for model training.
-Ensure data privacy and compliance with healthcare regulations.
Preprocessing:
- Clean and preprocess textual data to eliminate noise, irrelevant details, and formatting artifacts.
- Tokenize the text for word or phrase breakdown, handling special characters that may impact
model performance.
Feature Engineering:
- Extract relevant features from preprocessed text, utilizing techniques like TF-IDF or word
embeddings for meaningful representation.
- Consider context and importance of each word or phrase.
Model Development:
- Design and implement a deep learning model, possibly using RNNs or transformer
architectures.
- Integrate NLP techniques such as NER for key medical term extraction.
- Train the model on labeled datasets, optimizing hyperparameters for performance.
Validation:
- Split datasets for training and validation to assess model generalization.
- Evaluate performance using metrics like precision, recall, and F1 score.
- Fine-tune model based on validation results to enhance accuracy.
Testing:
- Conduct extensive testing with diverse MRI reports to validate model robustness.
- Address any issues like false positives or negatives.
- Gather user feedback for system refinement.
Documentation:
- Create comprehensive documentation covering data collection, preprocessing, model
architecture, and user interface.
- Include details on deployment, maintenance, and potential future enhancements.

Technology:
- Python will serve as the primary programming language.
- Machine learning frameworks like TensorFlow or PyTorch will be integrated.
- NLP libraries such as spaCy or NLTK will handle text processing.
- HTML, CSS, and JavaScript will be utilized for frontend development.
- The system will aim to construct a reliable automated keyword extraction system for MRI
reports.
- The approach ensures a smooth user experience through a web interface while enabling
accurate extraction of relevant keywords.
Project Scope:
This project aims to develop an automated system for extracting key information from MRI
reports, specifically targeting the identification of relevant keywords. The system will utilize
techniques such as part-of-speech tagging, pattern extraction, and topic modeling to identify and
categorize medical vocabulary within the reports. It will filter out irrelevant words, correct typos,
and structure the extracted keywords into meaningful medical terms. The ultimate goal is to
create a structured form of the MRI reports, enhancing their readability and facilitating quicker
decision-making for healthcare professionals. By automating the processing and analysis of MRI
reports, this project seeks to improve the efficiency and accuracy of medical diagnosis,
ultimately contributing to better patient care outcomes.
