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. 

'Well-resourced and innovation-focused hospitals should mentor and provide technical support to underfunded or smaller hospitals.'

How to mitigate institutional inequities involving AI

When it comes to adopting healthcare AI, large, well-off hospitals are likely to frequently homer while smaller, struggling institutions go down looking. (Baseball analogy in honor of tonight’s Midsummer Classic.) 

Researchers have developed and validated a new artificial intelligence (AI) model capable of producing four-chamber cardiac MR (CMR) images in seconds, publishing their findings in European Radiology Experimental.

Elusive quadruple aim revisited for the generative AI era

Is U.S. healthcare capable of achieving its own quadruple aim? Or is that ideal destined to remain a perpetual pursuit, always chased but never really caught?

Around the web

U.S. health systems are increasingly leveraging digital health to conduct their operations, but how health systems are using digital health in their strategies can vary widely.

When human counselors are unavailable to provide work-based wellness coaching, robots can substitute—as long as the workers are comfortable with emerging technologies and the machines aren’t overly humanlike.

A vendor that supplies EHR software to public health agencies is partnering with a health-tech startup in the cloud-communications space to equip state and local governments for managing their response to the COVID-19 crisis.
