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.

Research review: Patients have understandably mixed feelings about AI in healthcare

A new review of the relevant scientific literature suggests many if not most patients are aware that healthcare AI’s emerging benefits exist side-by-side with its persistent uncertainties. 

AI detects incidental breast lesions on routine CT scans

AI detects twice as many incidental lesions as radiologists

Prior research has suggested that these incidental lesions turn out to be cancerous in up to 70% of cases, making their timely detection critical. 

Ty Bode, senior director of strategy at GE Healthcare, explains the details of a new, economical cardiac CT scanner GE Healthcare launched at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) 2025 meeting. The Revolution Vibe is designed specifically for coronary CT angiography (CCTA), but at a lower price point than the traditional high-end, flagship scanner that have traditional performed CCTA work.

A closer look at GE HealthCare's new affordable cardiac CT scanner

As cardiac CT continues to get used more and more, GE HealthCare has launched a new scanner designed to meet the needs of both outpatient imaging centers and larger hospitals.
