Algorithms for automated standard contouring
Thanks to AI-based algorithms, risk organs can be automatically contoured faster and more precisely. This can also help radiation oncologists decide the best treatment strategy and use of resources, especially important during this COVID-19 crisis.
Simplifying Even Complex CT Procedures with Intelligent Imaging
Precision, quality, and speed have made the radiology unit of the Clínica Universidad de Navarra, Spain, a national benchmark. To keep it that way, it has implemented new, personalized scanning methods.
