Abstract
The paper is a critical review of the uses of neural network in medical imaging process. First, a thorough review of machine-learning-based artificial neural network is introduced, with its historical background. Inhibiting reasons why ANN was almost dropped altogether in research centers is given and an explanation why it has become so important in modern medical image processing is given. Types of neural networks including a brief description of CNN are given before an introduction of the application in the medical image processing before the paper concludes with an emphasis that ANN has not only improved medical image processing, it is likely to take a leading role in medication in the coming years.
