Existing Chest CT Scans Can Predict Risk of Heart Attack or Death during Major Surgeries

Major surgeries, which generally involve vital organs, increase the risk for heart attack, stroke, and death in patients. A new study has found that rather than using special heart scans, physicians can utilize images of the chest captured months earlier, and for other reasons, to measure a patient’s risk of heart attack or death during major surgeries.

Next-Generation Artificial Intelligence to Improve Medical Imaging Diagnostics

Despite the remarkable advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), studies have found that it may not be able to improve the accuracy of medical diagnoses. The University of Houston has been awarded a grant from the National Cancer Institute for their project of creating a new artificial intelligence (AI) system that will focus on improving diagnostics for lung cancer.
