Extraction of Keywords from MRI Report

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.

Proposed Plan of Work:


The proposed work plan entails a comprehensive methodology starting with an in-depth
literature review to identify gaps and advancements in NLP and machine learning for MRI report
keyword extraction. This is followed by a well-structured data collection strategy encompassing
variations in medical conditions and languages. A meticulous approach includes interface
prototyping, user feedback integration, pilot testing, and defined performance metrics. Extensive
documentation covers all project aspects including deployment and scalability planning to meet
healthcare standards. The plan concludes with tailored procedures for healthcare professionals,
addressing training challenges. This systematic approach ensures the successful development of
an efficient and user-friendly keyword extraction system for MRI reports.

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.

Feedback and Continuous Improvement:


- Establish feedback loop for healthcare professionals to contribute insights on system
performance and usability.
- Analyze feedback regularly to identify areas for improvement.
- Consider iterative updates and enhancements based on user suggestions and evolving medical
needs.

Documentation:
- Create comprehensive documentation covering data collection, preprocessing, model
architecture, and user interface.
- Include details on deployment, maintenance, and potential future enhancements.
