Cost Minimization Analysis of a Store-and-Forward Teledermatology Consult System [PDF]
Telemedicine and e-Health, 2009 The aim of this study was to perform a cost minimization analysis of store-and-forward teledermatology compared to a conventional dermatology referral process (usual care). In a Department of Defense (DoD) setting, subjects were randomized to either a teledermatology consult or usual care.

Cost-effectiveness analysis in minimally invasive spine surgery
Neurosurgical Focus, 2014 Object Medical care has been evolving with the increased influence of a value-based health care system. As a result, more emphasis is being placed on ensuring cost-effectiveness and utility in the services provided to patients. This study looks at this development in respect to minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) costs.

Cost-Sensitive Support Vector Machines [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 A new procedure for learning cost-sensitive SVM(CS-SVM) classifiers is proposed. The SVM hinge loss is extended to the cost sensitive setting, and the CS-SVM is derived as the minimizer of the associated risk. The extension of the hinge loss draws on recent connections between risk minimization and probability elicitation.

Semi‐automated hippocampal avoidance whole‐brain radiotherapy planning
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Hippocampal avoidance whole‐brain radiotherapy (HA‐WBRT) is designed to spare cognitive function by reducing radiation dose to the hippocampus during the treatment of brain metastases. Current manual planning methods can be time‐consuming and may vary in quality, necessitating the development of automated approaches to streamline ...
