First Deep Learning AI Model Triages Patients with Chest Pain Using X-Rays

In the U.S., acute chest pain syndrome comprises more than seven million emergency department visits, making it among the most common complaints. However, less than 8% of such patients are diagnosed with the three major cardiovascular causes of acute chest pain syndrome. Now, a new study has found that artificial intelligence (AI) can help improve care for patients who turn up at the hospital emergency departments with acute chest pain. More...

Real-Time 3D Imaging Provides First-of-Its-Kind View of X-Rays Hitting Inside Body During Radiation Therapy

Radiation, used to treat half of all cancer patients, can now be measured during treatment for the first time with precise 3D imaging. By capturing and amplifying tiny sound waves created when X-rays heat tissues in the body, medical professionals can map the radiation dose within the body, giving them new data to guide treatments in real time.
