Hitachi Announces Launch of New Medical Imaging Innovation Center in US to Leverage AI

Hitachi Healthcare Americas (Twinsburg, OH, USA) has announced that it will create a new dedicated research and development facility within its North American headquarters facility in Twinsburg, Ohio, USA. Set to open this year, the Hitachi Healthcare Innovation Center of Excellence will leverage advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning to bring about a new generation of imaging technology.
