HKUST has developed AI medical models to assist with cancer and disease diagnosis. 'MedDr', a medical ChatGPT-like tool, generates reports from images. 'MOME' focuses on breast cancer, analysing MRIs with over 90% accuracy. These tools could reduce diagnosis time by 40%. HKUST plans to collaborate with hospitals and aims to establish a new medical school with AI-integrated healthcare.
An Illinois startup has developed AI-powered imaging technology for breast cancer surgery, creating 3D tumour models from MRIs to aid surgical planning. The FDA-cleared technology provides colour-coded visualisations and key measurements, helping surgeons decide between breast conservation and mastectomy. The company is also developing AI to convert patient positioning in images and quickly assess cancer recurrence risk, potentially reducing treatment planning time significantly.
