Deep learning-based uncertainty quantification for quality assurance in hepatobiliary imaging-based techniques.

Recent advances in deep learning models have transformed medical imaging analysis, particularly in radiology. This editorial outlines how uncertainty quantification through embedding-based approaches enhances diagnostic accuracy and reliability in hepatobiliary imaging, with a specific focus on oncological conditions and early detection of precancerous lesions. We explore modern architectures like the Anisotropic Hybrid Network (AHUNet), which leverages both 2D imaging and 3D volumetric data through innovative convolutional approaches. We consider the implications for quality assurance in radiological practice and discuss recent clinical applications.
