Healthcare Diagnostic AI for Medical Imaging

Computer vision AI solution that reduced diagnosis time from 48+ hours to 15 minutes with significant accuracy improvements

Business Challenge

A major healthcare provider struggled with long diagnostic turnaround times for medical imaging analysis. Traditional manual diagnosis processes were taking more than 48 hours and achieving only 75% accuracy, creating bottlenecks in patient care and treatment planning.

Key Challenges:

  • • Long diagnostic waiting times (48+ hours) delaying critical treatments
  • • Limited diagnostic accuracy (75%) leading to potential misdiagnosis
  • • Skilled radiologist shortages in certain geographic regions
  • • Inconsistent interpretation due to human factors (fatigue, experience variation)
  • • Growing imaging volume overwhelming existing staff capacity
  • • Need for prioritization system for urgent cases

Our AI Solution

We developed an advanced computer vision AI system for medical image analysis that could assist radiologists by providing rapid preliminary diagnoses, highlighting potential areas of concern, and prioritizing cases based on severity.

AI Features Implemented:

  • • Deep learning-based image analysis for multiple imaging modalities (X-ray, CT, MRI)
  • • Automated anomaly detection with visual highlighting of potential issues
  • • Case prioritization algorithm based on detected anomaly severity
  • • Integration with existing PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System)
  • • Continuous learning system to improve accuracy over time
  • • Explainable AI features to support clinical decision-making
