Machine Learning Programs Predict Mortality Risk by Analyzing Results from Routine Hospital Tests
Hospital ECGs are mostly read by a doctor or nurse at the patient’s bedside, but now researchers are applying artificial intelligence (AI) to gather additional information from those results to improve patients care. More...22 Mar 2023

New Evidence-Based Algorithms Could Improve Diagnosis of Pediatric Tuberculosis
Research indicates that over 96% of the deadly TB cases in children under the age of 15 occur due to the lack of any treatment being provided. However, there is now hope for a reversal in this trend with the development of two novel evidence-based algorithms for diagnosing pediatric TB. More...16 Mar 2023

Artificial Intelligence Improves Colonoscopy Accuracy
Recent studies suggest that over half of post-colonoscopy cases of colon cancer appear due to missed lesions in previous examinations. To address this problem, scientists are now exploring the use of AI to locate these hard-to-see polyps. More...01 Mar 2023

3D AI Surgical Maps Platform Optimizes Endovascular MIS Procedures
Surgeons performing endovascular surgeries face several challenges such as significant variability in pre-operative planning and sizing, issues with imprecise visualization and device positioning intra-operatively, and inconsistent patient outcomes. Now, a game-changing technology for vascular navigation aims to improve patient outcomes by helping the surgeon navigate through blood vessels, and accurately and safely place a stent-graft.

Novel ECG Technology Utilizes AI for Early Detection of Heart Disease
Conventional electrocardiographs (ECGs) have always played a limited role in evaluating cardiac dysfunction due to their limited sensitivity in identifying structural and ischemic heart disease. Now, the ECG could become a far more valuable screening tool for the early detection of heart disease through the use of artificial intelligence. More...07 Feb 2023

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Could Save U.S. Healthcare Industry USD 360 Billion Annually
The wider adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare could save the U.S. up to USD 360 billion annually although its uptake in the industry is presently limited owing to the absence of trust among patients and doctors, heterogeneous data and misaligned incentives. More...30 Jan 2023

AI-Enabled ECG Analysis Predicts Heart Attack Risk Nearly as well as CT Scans
Increased coronary artery calcium is a marker of coronary artery disease that can lead to a heart attack. Now, a coronary artery calcium study has shown for the first time that an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm can read ultrasound images of the heart to accurately identify whether a patient has a large amount of buildup in their coronary arteries. More...27 Jan 2023
