Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming a crucial component of healthcare to help augment physicians and make them more efficient. In medical imaging, it is helping radiologists more efficiently manage PACS worklists, enable structured reporting, auto detect injuries and diseases, and to pull in relevant prior exams and patient data. In cardiology, AI is helping automate tasks and measurements on imaging and in reporting systems, guides novice echo users to improve imaging and accuracy, and can risk stratify patients. AI includes deep learning algorithms, machine learning, computer-aided detection (CAD) systems, and convolutional neural networks.

Deep learning model enables routine radiographs to be used for osteoporosis screening
Many people with low bone mineral density are not aware of their condition because they fail to get screened through DXA or are not eligible due to age.
AI brings cardiology, neurology teams together to boost care for stroke patients
A new post-stroke care pathway from Viz.ai and Medtronic is associated with significant benefits, including higher patient and clinician satisfaction.

Radiology practice SimonMed Imaging launches breast AI program charging $40 a pop
The Scottsdale, Arizona-based practice follows in the footsteps of RadNet, which has generated millions in revenue from its own artificial intelligence program.
Healthcare systems are proceeding apace with GenAI—and learning as they go
Last summer more than 40% of 121 hospital executives surveyed said their organization had already realized a decent ROI in generative AI. However, a C-suite slice of nearly the same size said it was too soon to know for sure.
