Artificial Intelligence promises to revolutionize many fields, but few as important as healthcare. With the potential to analyze medical imaging faster and more accurately than human beings, the race is on to develop AI that can perform the most time-consuming aspect of radiological interpretation for practitioners. To that end, Nvidia and King’s College London have teamed up to build and train an AI platform to interpret radiological scans for hospitals across the UK.
The idea of using of AI platforms in medical diagnostics and research is still relatively new, and this partnership is the first of its kind looking to develop an AI system intended for the entire UK public health system, the National Health Service (NHS), working across multiple clinical pathways, including oncology, cardiology and neurology, and using data from patients located all over the nation.
