Machine learning and deep learning techniques have been used in many fields, especially automatic image processing techniques, in recent years. In light of these developments, it has become inevitable to develop applications in the medical field. This study focuses on the past few years of research using machine learning and deep learning methods in the context of image processing in the field of rheumatology. This review provides researchers with the latest information on the use of deep learning and machine learning and inspires them to generate new ideas in their research by analyzing image processing systems performed by these artificial intelligence methods. In the proposed systematic review, 28 articles covering the application of deep learning and machine learning methods in the domain of rheumatology with the aim of digital image processing in the last 18 years were evaluated. Experiments emphasize that machine learning and deep learning methods provide significant segmentation accuracy and better case classification accuracy for various rheumatologic diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. Lastly submitted review presents possible different research ideas for related researchers to concentrate on for their future studies.
