Siemens Healthineers increases AI-enabled radiology services

Siemens Healthineers’ new AI-enabled services are aimed at helping healthcare providers address challenges from hands-on image interpretation to complex scenario planning for entire healthcare environments. The new radiology services suite is designed to span the imaging chain from scheduling to image generation to reporting. It bundles existing services and new ones like the AI-Enablement Services that can provide radiologists with custom-built
summaries of clinically relevant observations.

A new, scanner-technology agnostic services suite is intended to support radiologists by taking over some of the more mundane processes. Siemens says pilot projects have shown that by using the new AI-enabled solution, radiologists were able to annotate chest CT images up to 25 per cent faster and experienced noticeably less cognitive load. The clinical accuracy of the results remained at the same high level.

“It is very similar to having a resident clinician drafting cases to you, with the tedious work already completed when you open a case. This allows you to move more efficiently through cases and decreases cognitive load,” said radiologist Dr William Baughman of The MetroHealth System, Cleveland, USA, who has already tested the AI features with his team.
