Siemens Healthineers Debuts AI-Rad Companion Chest CT Based on New AI-Rad Companion Platform
Summary
CHICAGO--( BUSINESS WIRE )-- RSNA 2018 in Chicago: South Building, Hall A, Booth 4136 – During the 104 th Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), Nov. 25-30 at Chicago’s McCormick Place, Siemens Healthineers presents its first intelligent software assistant for radiology, The AI-Rad Companion Chest CT,¹ which brings artificial intelligence to computed tomography (CT).Using CT images of the chest, the software can differentiate between various structures in that region of the body, highlight them individually, and mark and measure potential abnormalities in the lungs, heart, aorta, and coronary arteries.Featuring underlying algorithms that were trained by Siemens Healthineers scientists on extensive clinical datasets, AI-Rad Companion Chest CT is designed to help radiologists interpret images via automation for potentially reduced time spent on results documentation.“One goal we have for our intelligent software assistants is that they’ll help healthcare providers overcome the challenge of rising patient numbers coupled with shortfalls in staff,” says Yan Beynon, Head of Digital Services at Siemens Healthineers.The software integrates seamlessly into existing clinical workflows and conforms to Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standards.
