Samsung Medison has developed two automated ultrasound measurement technologies that streamline clinical workflows, helping clinicians make decisions during pregnancy and birth. Both technologies are optimized by the Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit.6
In critical patient situations, every second matters. GE Healthcare used Intel® Vision technologies to develop an AI algorithm that helps medical staff quickly triage life-threatening cases. Using the Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit6, the team was able to reduce inferencing for collapsed lungs from three seconds to less than one second.7
Siemens Healthineers is exploring the role of AI and deep learning in personalized medicine and identifying pathways for disease. Learn how this team is collaborating with Intel on applying AI to real-time diagnosis to improve patient outcomes.
To work efficiently, clinicians must be able to quickly call up MRIs, CT scans, and other images from any device they’re using. Backed by Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors and Intel® Optane™ technology, Carestream provides a solution that makes medical records affordable and readily accessible to users.
Intel is at the forefront of advancing technologies that enable the medical imaging market to adopt AI. Intel hardware is already used in many areas of medical imaging technology, so running AI models on the same architecture is a natural progression. We offer hardware, software, and expertise to address a wide range of needs, including:
Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel microprocessors.
Performance tests, such as SYSmark and MobileMark, are measured using specific computer systems, components, software, operations, and functions. Any change to any of those factors may cause the results to vary. You should consult other information and performance tests to assist you in fully evaluating your contemplated purchases, including the performance of that product when combined with other products. For more complete information visit intel.in/benchmarks.
Intel does not control or audit third-party data. You should consult other sources to evaluate accuracy.
Intel® technologies may require enabled hardware, software, or service activation.
No product or component can be absolutely secure.
Your costs and results may vary.
