BLOG: Artificial Intelligence for Clinical Decision Support and Increased Revenues The landscape at the Radiological Society of North America’s 2020 (RSNA20) conference was different for everyone this year — attendees and exhibitors alike — as we all grappled with the third wave of COVID-19. Through its virtual presence, Konica Minolta highlighted how their advancements in the artificial intelligence (AI) segment are transforming the practice of radiology in two specific areas: clinical decision support for imaging and increasing revenue through natural language understanding (NLU). Creating Partnerships to Achieve Goals To further these efforts, Konica Minolta has partnered with 1QBit, an advanced and quantum computing software company with a strong focus on AI, based in Canada. 1QBit uses sophisticated techniques to tackle computationally intractable problems, and both companies share the same goal. “It’s really important to improve patient care with one goal, and that's with quality systems,” said Kevin Borden, Vice President of HCIT Product at Konica Minolta Healthcare. “To reach this goal, we partnered with 1QBit to provide an unmatched suite of tools to assist radiologists and radiology practices.”
