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.

New Lantern's AI-enabled additions aimed at streamlining mammo and PET workflows

The San Francisco-based company says the updates will accelerate radiology workflows by removing administrative burdens and freeing up radiologists to spend more time reviewing imaging exams instead. 

The Ventric Health Vivio AI system screens for elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, or filling pressure (LVEDP) quickly with a a five-minute, noninvasive test using a blood pressure cuff, single-lead Bluetooth-enabled ECG, and proprietary algorithm. This can be performed in a single primary care office visit.

Algorithm brings early heart failure screening to primary care office visits

Most patients are first diagnosed with heart failure in an emergency room or hospital, when their symptoms are already severe. This advanced algorithm could change all that by opening up screening to many more patients.
