Uni-Klinik Balgrist testet KI-basierte MRI-Analysetechnologie

Die Schweizer Informatik-Firma Balzano erprobt an der Universitätsklinik Balgrist eine neue Lösung für die MRI-Analyse – basierend auf Deep Learning.

Balzano Informatik startet an Universitätsklinik Balgrist eine Testphase mit seiner Lösung «ScanDiags». Mit einer KI-basierten Analysetechnologie sollen Ergebnisse von Magnetresonanztomographien (MRT) bzw. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) schneller und effizienter interpretiert werden können.

“ScanDiags” is an Artificial Intelligence-based MRI analytics solution which automates MRI interpretation and documentation. It reduces the evaluation time of MRI scans up to 20% per patient case and delivers an immediate, automated second opinion to the radiology expert.

“A continuously learning, AI-based solution like “ScanDiags” exponentially improves the important knowledge-sharing process among radiologists, which is crucial for our patients, as it increases the diagnostic quality. At the same time, the optimization of this process substantially reduces the overall costs of healthcare.”
University Hospital Balgrist Zürich – Prof. Dr. Christian Pfirrmann

ScanDiags runs as an Azure-based WebApp in a PaaS architecture that is managed by Microsoft.
Balzano Informatik is one of our partners in the AI in Health Alliance, which aims to democratize healthcare for the greater good.
