Siemens Healthineers also introduced two AI-based software assistants designed to free radiologists from performing routine activities during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations.
AI-Rad Companion Brain MR for Morphometry Analysis is designed to automatically segment the brain in MRI images, measure brain volume and mark volume deviations in result tables used by neurologists for diagnosis and treatment.
AI-Rad Companion Prostate MR for biopsy support is designed to automatically segment the outer contour of the prostate on MRI images and enable radiologists to mark lesions, so it’s easier for their colleagues in Urology to perform targeted prostate biopsies.
Both new applications can be used on MRI scanners from different manufacturers and are available on Siemens’ teamplay cloud-based healthcare platform, where available. Both applications are also awaiting FDA clearance, the company said.
