Machine learning techniques have been increasingly applied in the medical imaging field for developing computer-aided diagnosis and prognosis models. Multimodal medical imaging can provide us with separate yet complementary structure and function information of a patient study and hence has transformed the way we study living bodies. Therefore, using machine learning techniques to deal with multimodal medical images is much more challenging due to the diversity of biophysical-biochemical mechanisms. In these years, researchers mainly adapt modern machine learning and pattern recognition techniques such as supervised, unsupervised, semi-supervised, and deep learning to solve multimodal medical imaging related problems.
