There's "precision medicine" and "rabbit hole medicine"
This report represents the latter. How to collect an avg $8,000/person, do many tests to get lots of abnormal findings (for more testing) and "health outcome and benefits were not measured" pnas.org/content/early/… @PNASNews
@PNASNews My colleague @evanmuse and I wrote about this @TheLancet recently thelancet.com/pdfs/journals/…
"High-dimensional data for a human being is an alluring
yet unproven concept; "there is no validation..in the clinic"
@ScrippsRTI @scrippsresearch
@PNASNews @EvanMuse @TheLancet @ScrippsRTI @scrippsresearch Here's the previous report from the same group on "precision medicine" which I label (IMO more precisely) "rabbit-hole medicine." Of 209 people, >33% underwent additional medical imaging due to incidental findings pnas.org/content/pnas/1…

Our new @ThaLancet Digital Medicine essay is especially timely
thelancet.com/journals/lance…
It's on #AI-assisted endoscopy w/ @tberzin, a co-author and collaborator in 3 randomized clinical trials @BIDMChealth
@tberzin @BIDMChealth Of the 6 randomized trials of #AI in medicine published to date, 5 are in #gastroenterology, using real-time machine vision during endoscopy. All of these were conducted in China.
@tberzin @BIDMChealth Unlike other deep neural networks for medical imaging, it requires real time assessment to detect an adenoma and decide whether a biopsy is indicated.
This video from Japan's @LPIXEL_Inc shows where the field is headed #AI

What is the longer term impact of #AI-algorithms that guide non-expert (uninitiated) humans to acquire ultrasound images?
1. Yesterday the @US_FDA approved the 1st system to do this for heart images (echocardiography)
statnews.com/2020/02/07/fda… @statnews by @matthewherper
@US_FDA @statnews @matthewherper 2. I used this system last month. Software directs the person imaging to the optimum spot for high-quality images and once there automatically records. Example loop:
@US_FDA @statnews @matthewherper 3. Such imaging can ultimately be done anywhere and by anyone, using smartphone-ultrasound as shown here, exemplifying a way that #AI can reduce global health inequalities.
Remote expert interpretation is now possible and eventually cloud-based algorithmic support will kick in.

In case you wondered, as time permits I add Q drops tha match the deltas (time between tweets) & timestamps on President Trump’s Tweets as a way to re_read drops & to see if they are deliberate on POTUS part, possibly pointing to a specific drop. Sometimes they seem to be! 😊

@ThatShockratees
Unpopular but correct opinion:

Perjury: “Mueller never communicated any thoughts on my letter.”

NOT perjury: “I do not know what Mueller thought about my letter.”

Notice the lawyers in Congress are focusing on Barr’s subpoena-defiance, not going down perjury rabbit-hole?
There’s a good reason for that. Experienced lawyers NEVER ask Person A about direct knowledge of Person B’s “thoughts” or “feelings.”

You are always telling the truth when you answer “I don’t know what another person’s thoughts were.”

Misleading in context? Sure. Not a lie.
We only know another person’s thoughts to the extent they express them.

If Barr had been asked “Did Mueller ever EXPRESS or COMMUNICATE any thoughts, reactions or responses to your letter?”

And he’d answered “No.”

THAT would have been perjury.

I'm disappointed and a bit confused that @kezdugdale (my list MSP and who also stood in my constituency) has adopted this position when it's not the position of the local Labour Party's manifesto at the last council election
A majority of people in Edinburgh do not drive to work. Edinburgh has the lowest per capita car ownership in Scotland, it has 3rd lowest access to a car in Scotland, it's the only LA where this is falling.
