UNC would like to see the project scaled, first across North Carolina, and then across the U.S.

Precision medicine's genomic solutions were a great first step, but they are limited compared to AI's ability - for example, Artera's test for localized prostate cancer and recommended therapy, says CEO Andre Esteva.  

VoiceBot Grace does patient follow-up for discharges at home by setting up PCP appointments and this virtual assistant is part of the care team at Memorial Hermann, says Chief Digital Officer Eric Smith.  

Predictive AI alerts nurses of those patients at risk for a bad outcome and found that interventions to prevent, for instance, sepsis, saves an estimated 50 lives a year, says UC San Diego Health Chief Health AI Officer Dr. Karandeep Singh.  

UC San Diego Health Chief Health AI Officer Dr. Karandeep Singh says he looks at the tools being used at the bedside and determines how well they do and whether they help clinicians and patients.  

Google is licensing its model focused on detecting diabetic retinopathy in India and Thailand, where an estimated 6 million people will have access to screenings at no cost, says Sunny Virmani, group product manager of health AI at Google.  

The interdisciplinary center will combine AI with data science and genomics in a location at the center of its Manhattan hospital.

Almost three-quarters of organizations said they were growing their financial commitments to the technology, survey finds.

Artificial intelligence makes efficient use of a massive amount of data, but it can also create deep fake technology, says Dr. Benoit Desjardins, professor of radiology at the University of Montreal.  

Tenet Physician Resources will use AI to integrate clinical workflows, reducing administrative burden.
