At some point, we or someone we love will need medical imaging – be it for a checkup, a medical condition, or an accident. I know I have. When I broke my femur in a skateboarding accident a couple years ago, I had numerous scans in order to get a diagnosis. I’m grateful for the radiologists who analyzed my scans carefully and correctly, setting me on the path to recovery. But not every patient always gets an accurate and fast diagnosis. Health care systems are overburdened. With staff shortages and a growing amount of imaging data, radiologists may only have a couple of seconds per image to keep up with demand. That’s where #AI can help. In fact, the FDA has already cleared more than 700 applications for artificial intelligence in healthcare. And more than 70 percent of them are in radiology. I recently caught up with Jamie Chow at Blackford, a Bayer subsidiary and a leading provider of AI solutions, to understand how this technology is being applied in patient care. Check it out!
