Exploring the Application of the Artificial-Intelligence-Integrated Platform 3D Slicer in Medical Imaging Education.

ABSTRACT

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized medical imaging procedures, specifically with regard to image segmentation, reconstruction, interpretation, and research. 3D Slicer, an open-source medical image analysis platform, has become a valuable tool in medical imaging education due to its integration of various AI applications. Through its open-source architecture, students can gain practical experience with diverse medical images and the latest AI technology, reinforcing their understanding of anatomy and imaging technology while fostering independent learning and clinical reasoning skills. The implementation of this platform improves instruction quality and nurtures skilled professionals who can meet the demands of clinical practice, research institutions, and technology innovation enterprises. AI algorithms' application in medical image processing have facilitated their translation from the lab to practical clinical applications and education.
