At the Radiological Society of North America?s 2024 Annual Meeting taking place from December 1-4 in Chicago, GE HealthCare will exhibit more than 40 innovations, including several key artificial intelligence -enabled technologies to optimize patient care and increase operational efficiencies. GE HealthCare products are designed to increase efficiency and help seamlessly integrate data to support precision care across multiple care pathways. These innovations represent the company?s broader AI and digital strategy, which is focused on integrating AI into medical devices, building AI applications that enhance decision-making across the care journey and disease states, and using AI to support better outcomes.
According to surveys of over 8,000 radiology professionals included in a 2024 report from the American Society of Radiologic Technologists, more than half reported feeling emotionally exhausted, and 57% felt underappreciated on the job. Simplifying and improving workflows: GE HealthCare offers next-generation solutions and AI-enabled products to streamline workflows and increase efficiency to drive better patient care, clinical decisions or outcomes. The following workflow efficiency technologies will be showcased at the event: Clarify DL, 510(k) pending in the U.S., is a bone image reconstruction algorithm powered by AI that is designed to enhance bone SPECT image quality performance, an important factor in increasing diagnostic confidence.
nCommand Lite by IONIC Health empowers radiology staff to focus on patient care, while accessing the support needed through remote collaboration and scan assistance. nCommand Lite includes multi-modality capabilities in support of magnetic resonance, computed tomography and positron emission tomography/CT (PET/CT) scanning. True PACS and v7 PACS solution, now supports Blackford?s AI orchestration platform and selective 3rd party AI based imaging applications, providing seamless integration of AI in the reading workflow to help radiologists and clinicians provide quick and accurate diagnosis for patients.1 The collaboration enables True PACS and v7 PACS solution customers to directly acquire Blackford Analysis?
AI-enabled platform with a catalogue of third-party AI applications that span across various clinical area use cases, ranging from mammography to lung scans. MR Max 3?,a wireless syringeless power injector for gadolinium-based contrast media is compatible with multiple contrast bottle sizes, including 24-hour multiuse containers (Imaging Bulk Packaging). The syringeless injector enhances workflow efficiency, lowers plastic waste consumption, and enables contrast optimization through the use the efficient use of Imaging Bulk Packaging containers, thus further reducing overall departmental cost by reducing contrast waste.
Caption Guidance is AI-driven technology powered by deep learning image analysis algorithms that guide users on how to adjust the ultrasound probe. The software provides real-time, step-by-step instructions to ensure that the cardiac ultrasound images captured meet the diagnostic standard. Venue Sprint, a portable system in a tablet form, and the latest Venue family solution offering maximum portability and advanced capabilities for high-quality scanning and support at the point of care.
Venue family ultrasound systems will also integrate wireless Vscan Air dual-probes and have access to Caption Guidance. Vscan Air SL handheld ultrasound system now features Caption AI, including Caption Interpretation AutoEF software, which automatically calculates a left ventricular ejection fraction, an important measure of heart function. In addition, Digital Tools for Vscan Air offers key tools to securely store and share images in the cloud.
At RSNA, GE HealthCare will launch a new trial of Digital Tools for both existing and new Vscan Air users to evaluate new software. Precise and personalized care, GE HealthCare strives to support health systems by delivering a personalized care pathway for each patient. GE HealthCare?s integrated cancer care products leverage digital, AI and their suite of innovative solutions along with imaging technologies and radiopharmaceuticals.
These components are designed to enhance diagnoses, drive productivity, increase value, speed and efficiency, and improve overall patient health. At the event, GE HealthCare has several new oncology technologies that help provide personalized care: approaches for better patient outcomes. It integrates deep learning image reconstruction and a collection of advanced CT clinical and effortless workflow solutions designed to help support better patient care.
GE HealthCare and RadNet recently announced a strategic collaboration that will leverage GE HealthCare?s legacy and scale of imaging innovation and RadNet?s DeepHealth AI-powered clinical and workflow solutions to further the innovation, commercialization, and adoption of AI in imaging. Together, GE HealthCare and DeepHealth aim to create SmartTechnology? solutions that harness the power of AI to help redefine radiology workflows and address key challenges across the imaging value chain to improve speed, clinical accuracy, operational efficiency, and elevate patient care.
Senographe Pristina Via is an advanced mammography system that introduces innovative features designed to support technologist workflow and streamline the image acquisition process. CareIntellect for Oncology is a new cloud-first application that brings together multi-modal patient data from disparate systems into a single view, using generative AI to summarize clinical notes and reports. This solution also surfaces relevant data allowing care teams to quickly understand disease progression and flag potential deviations from the treatment plan to help the clinician determine next steps and inform proactive interventions.
The application is planned to be available in the U.S. in 2025, initially focusing on prostate and breast cancer.
