Abstract
Artificial intelligence can assist providers in a variety of patient care and intelligent health systems. Artificial intelligence
techniques ranging from machine learning to deep learning are prevalent in healthcare for disease diagnosis, drug discovery,
and patient risk identification. Numerous medical data sources are required to perfectly diagnose diseases using artificial
intelligence techniques, such as ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, mammography, genomics, computed tomography
scan, etc. Furthermore, artificial intelligence primarily enhanced the infirmary experience and sped up preparing patients
to continue their rehabilitation at home. This article covers the comprehensive survey based on artificial intelligence tech-
niques to diagnose numerous diseases such as Alzheimer, cancer, diabetes, chronic heart disease, tuberculosis, stroke and
cerebrovascular, hypertension, skin, and liver disease. We conducted an extensive survey including the used medical imag-
ing dataset and their feature extraction and classification process for predictions. Preferred reporting items for systematic
reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines are used to select the articles published up to October 2020 on the Web of Science,
Scopus, Google Scholar, PubMed, Excerpta Medical Database, and Psychology Information for early prediction of distinct
kinds of diseases using artificial intelligence-based techniques. Based on the study of different articles on disease diagnosis,
the results are also compared using various quality parameters such as prediction rate, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, the
area under curve precision, recall, and F1-score.

Table 2  Medical imaging types with their respective descriptions


Medical imaging types Description

Radiographic imaging (Zhang et al. 2019) Radiographic imaging is utilized in the ionizing of electromagnetic radiation, for
example, X-beams to see objects
Fluoroscopy (Santroo et al. 2019) It creates ongoing pictures of the body’s interior structures that consistently contrib-
ute X-beams at a lower portion rate to give moving projection radiographs of lower
quality
Angiography (Katharine et al. 2019) Angiography is utilized to discover aneurysms, releases, blockages, new vessel
development, and arrangement of catheters and stents
DEXA (Yang et al. 2020) It is likewise called Dual X-beam Absorptiometry or bone densitometry which is
utilized for osteoporosis tests
Computed tomography (CT) (Kasasbeh et al. 2019) Computed tomography examination utilizes an immense measure of ionizing radia-
tion related to a PC to make pictures of delicate and hard tissues
Magnetic resonance imaging (Zhou et al. 2019) Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) filtering is a clinical examination that utilizes an
excellent magnet and radiofrequency waves to create a body picture
Ultrasound imaging (Sloun et al. 2019) It utilizes high recurrence broadband sound waves in the megahertz range that are
reflected by tissue to differing degrees to deliver 3D pictures
Bone scan (Gupta et al. 2019) It is an imaging procedure that utilizes a radioactive compound to distinguish the
regions of mending within the bone
Electron microscopy (Tegunov et al. 2019) Electron microscopy is a magnifying instrument that can amplify tiny subtleties with
high settling power
Nuclear medicine (Nensa et al. 2019) Nuclear medication on an entire incorporates both the finding and treatment of
infections utilizing atomic properties
