Abstract
An automatic patient recruitment system is operable to determine a set of eligibility criteria, which includes abnormality criteria and other patient criteria, for each of a plurality of pharmaceutical studies. Abnormality data is generated for received medical scans by performing at least one inference function on image data of each medical scans by utilizing a computer vision model trained on a training set of medical scans. One of a plurality of patients is identified to be eligible for a pharmaceutical study by determining a medical scan of the patient has abnormality data that compares favorably to the abnormality criteria of the pharmaceutical study and by determining that the patient has patient data that compares favorably to the other patient criteria of the pharmaceutical study. A notification indicating the identified patient is eligible for the pharmaceutical study is generated for transmission to a client device.
