In an era where artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping healthcare, United Imaging Intelligence (UII), a leading subsidiary of United Imaging Group, is at the forefront of this revolution. At the highly anticipated Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) 2023 event in Chicago, UII is set to unveil its latest medical AI advancements. This marks a significant moment for UII, echoing its impactful debut at the 2019 RSNA meeting. This article explores the innovative strides UII has made in the field, particularly in addressing challenges like Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) detection through AI-assisted technology.
United Imaging Intelligence’s Pioneering Role
Since its inception, UII has been committed to bridging the gap between industry, academia, and medical practice. Their approach has led to the development of practical AI applications for clinical settings. To date, the company boasts over 40 applications deployed across more than 2000 clinical sites in China. “AI-driven solutions are not just a convenience but a necessity,” states Dr. Terrence Chen, CEO of United Imaging Intelligence America. His words resonate with the company’s mission to foster a healthier and more efficient healthcare ecosystem.
Advancements in CAD Detection
One of the flagship innovations by UII is a Deep Learning (DL) model designed for the automated reconstruction of Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO), a complex coronary lesion. Developed in collaboration with Shanghai General Hospital, this model has revolutionized CAD detection. It significantly reduces the time required for CTO quantification compared to manual methods and demonstrates remarkable accuracy in assessing occlusion features, as substantiated by a comprehensive quantitative analysis of several thousand clinical cases.
Beyond Cardiology: A Broader Impact
UII’s reach extends beyond cardiology, venturing into neurology, oncology, and other areas reliant on medical imaging. Their focus on AI-assisted diagnostics is a testament to their dedication to enhancing patient care across various medical fields.
Experience UII at RSNA 2023
RSNA attendees are invited to experience the future of medical AI at UII’s interactive booth (#4100, South Hall). A must-see presentation is also scheduled at the AI Theater at 11:30 am on Wednesday, November 29th, 2023.
In Summary
United Imaging Intelligence’s participation in RSNA 2023 is a beacon of hope and innovation in the medical field. Their cutting-edge AI technology not only promises to enhance clinical efficiency but also to revolutionize patient care.
