Overview

For the first 125 years of medical imaging, technological advances focused primarily on new modes of imaging as technology progressed from the discovery of the X-ray in 1895 to ultrasounds, MRIs, PET and CT scans in the late 20th century.

Now, arguably, the most notable advances are being made in how images from those technologies are securely shared, managed, stored and assessed. These advancements are largely due to the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to imaging systems and data platforms. Automation is improving virtually every stage of the imaging workflow, but there is a lot of hype concerning AI and ML in the marketplace. Companies have underestimated the challenge that complexity presents, and predictions of the end of radiologists have proven false multiple times.

Join experts from ICON Medical Imaging and Medidata for this webinar on the practical applications for AI and ML in clinical trial imaging and what is possible today. Learn what is available today in the current landscape, its applications for building efficiency, and what is coming in the near future to help life science companies transform their clinical trial imaging.

In this webinar, you will learn:

  • How AI needs to be focusing in specific areas, as past efforts to do everything have failed
  • How to narrow down imaging problem statements that will generate better results
  • How AI and ML can function as “guide rails” for radiologists
  • Areas that AI and ML can increase efficiency (thus saving money) and improve quality (thus saving lives)
