Late last month, I received a message. This message came from our old friend, coolwulf Jiang Hao. The content was about coolwulf's new project—NeuralRad. In his words, it is "the first free organ and tumor segmentation cloud service in history." Just upload a CT or MRI scan, and AI can automatically identify and segment whole body organs within a few minutes.
Over the last decade, we have made groundbreaking achievements like artificial organs, robotic surgery, telehealth, wearable health trackers, precision medicine, and so on. The transformative power seems so promising that the healthcare industry is making investments in AI technologies. A mutual augmentation of men/ women with machines can fast-track progress in healthcare. Technology has come a long way, transforming from an enabler to a confederate. With digital technologies, the healthcare sector has achieved massive innovative leaps. A major chunk of healthcare providers have integrated cutting-edge technologies at the frontier, to fight illness, develop modern vaccines, pharmaceutical advances, save lives, improve quality of life. "We believe consumer health technologies apps, wearables, and self-diagnosis tools have the potential to strengthen the patient-physician connection and improve health outcomes." – Dr. Glen Stream, Chairman, Family Medicine for America's Health
