Hyderabad: In a move to develop the healthcare infrastructure in the state, Health Minister T Harish Rao has launched an AI-integrated PET/CT scan at Yashoda hospital, Malakpet.
At the current time, AI, whether in the form of traditional machine learning, or the more recent deep learning, other types of learning, has been demonstrated to successfully detect and characterise areas of pathology, accurately segment areas of pathology or organs, synthesize presented information to make a diagnosis, label types and locations of pathology and anatomy, reduce quantum noise in images, and even reconstruct cross-sectional images from multiple views (or projections) around the patient.
CT scan exposes patients to higher doses of radiation than other methods. It carries increased cancer risk for all patients, particularly those in higher-risk categories such as pediatric, obese or oncology patients who receive regular screening. Hence with the help of AI-based technology, the risk of cancer lowers in patients.
