Webinar Wednesday - AI in Medical Imaging: What You Need to Know (by Equium Intelligence)

Artificial Intelligence (AI) remains one of the hottest topics in healthcare today, particularly in medical imaging. When it comes to understanding AI in medical imaging, one needs to appreciate the fear, hype versus reality, and challenges of this technology. We will examine the past and the present of AI in medical imaging. Finally, the current AI research and commercial products are heavily focused on using AI for image interpretation. This presentation will examine the use and benefit of AI beyond image interpretation tasks to support non-interpretative and operational tasks to improve efficiency, enhance patient care, and reduce burnout.
