Tech giant Google has joined hands with Apollo Radiology International (ARI) to leverage the power of artificial intelligence (AI) for early detection of serious diseases in India as part of efforts to ensure quality healthcare.
As part of this partnership, Google Health and Apollo Group already developed models for use of AI in radiology and diagnosis for early detection of tuberculosis, breast cancer as well as lung cancer that were unveiled at the global Google Health Check-up event on Tuesday.
The AI systems developed by Google are now assisting radiologists in interpreting chest X-ray scans for TB, identifying incidental nodules in cancer patients as well as assisting with interpreting mammograms. These ailments require specialized screening and expertise to interpret scans. Over the next 10 years, ARI will use these models to provide three million free AI-powered screenings for TB, lung cancer, and breast cancer, said Shravya Shetty, director & engineering lead, Health AI, Google Research
Google collaborates with Apollo Radiology International to deploy AI for disease detection in India. Models for TB, breast cancer, and lung cancer are developed. AI aids in interpreting scans like X-rays and mammograms, addressing the shortage of radiologists.
