Here is an overview of top priorities, barriers to adoption and the mindset of leadership. Healthcare organizations are focused, creating plans and paths to make AI happen. Read more

Artificial and augmented intelligence are poised to revolutionize healthcare and medicine. Read more

It’s all about the data. We’ve been saying this for years. We can choose to look at this in one of two ways. It’s either a constant truism or it actually evolves and gains mass over time. In the age of artificial intelligence, it is both. 

A new project is seeking to make MRI scans up to 10 times faster by capturing less data. NYU’s Center for Advanced Imaging Innovation and Research (CAI2R) is working with the Facebook Artificial Intelligence Research group to “train artificial neural networks to recognize the underlying structure of the images to fill in views omitted from the accelerated scan.”

Machine learning is one of the hottest topics in radiology and all of healthcare, but reading the latest and greatest ML research can be difficult, even for experienced medical professionals. A new analysis written by a team at Northern Ireland’s Belfast City Hospital and published in the American Journal of Roentgenology was written with that very problem in mind.

A compilation of the latest news in AI and machine learning

As an integrated health-delivery network comprising 13 hospital campuses, two research centers and a health plan with more than half a million subscribers sitting atop the biggest biobank with whole exome (DNA) sequence data in existence, Pennsylvania’s Geisinger Health System is one of the best-positioned institutions in the U.S. to explore the possibilities and initial successes of AI in healthcare. The institution is bringing complex algorithmic concepts to everyday patient care and showing others the path forward.

Artificial and augmented intelligence are driving the future of medical imaging. Tectonic is the only way to describe the trend. And medical imaging is at the right place at the right time. Imaging stands to get better, stronger, faster and more efficient thanks to artificial intelligence, including machine learning, deep learning, convolutional neural networks and natural language processing. So why is medical imaging ripe for AI? Check out the opportunities and hear what experts have to say—and see what you should be doing now if you haven’t already started.
