This article examines the relevance, capabilities, and practical significance of machine learning technologies in medical image analysis. In modern medicine, the increasing volume of diagnostic data obtained from X-ray imaging, Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and ultrasound imaging requires fast and accurate processing methods. Machine learning algorithms enable the automatic detection of disease symptoms, segmentation of pathological changes, and optimization of diagnostic procedures based on medical images. In particular, the development of Deep Learning methods has significantly improved the early detection of cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and neurological disorders. The study analyzes the main advantages of machine learning in medical image analysis, including improving diagnostic accuracy, reducing human-related errors, and decreasing the workload of healthcare professionals. In addition, the paper discusses existing challenges in the implementation of these technologies in clinical practice, such as data quality, reliability, and patient privacy issues. The research highlights the growing importance of artificial intelligence technologies in enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of modern medical diagnostics.
