Abstract
In the contemporary era, artificial intelligence (AI) has undergone a transformative evolution, exerting a profound influence on neuroimaging data analysis. This development has significantly elevated our comprehension of intricate brain functions. This study investigates the ramifications of employing AI techniques on neuroimaging data, with a specific objective to improve diagnostic capabilities and contribute to the overall progress of the field. A systematic search was conducted in prominent scientific databases, including PubMed, IEEE Xplore, and Scopus, meticulously curating 456 relevant articles on AI-driven neuroimaging analysis spanning from 2013 to 2023. To maintain rigor and credibility, stringent inclusion criteria, quality assessments, and precise data extraction protocols were consistently enforced throughout this review. Following a rigorous selection process, 104 studies were selected for review, focusing on diverse neuroimaging modalities with an emphasis on mental and neurological disorders. Among these, 19.2% addressed mental illness, and 80.7% focused on neurological disorders. It is found that the prevailing clinical tasks are disease classification (58.7%) and lesion segmentation (28.9%), whereas image reconstruction constituted 7.3%, and image regression and prediction tasks represented 9.6%. AI-driven neuroimaging analysis holds tremendous potential, transforming both research and clinical applications. Machine learning and deep learning algorithms outperform traditional methods, reshaping the field significantly.© 2024. International Federation for Medical and Biological Engineering.
