GE HealthCare integrated a third-party artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled application orchestration feature into True PACS and Centricity PACS.1 In collaboration with Blackford, the new AI-enabled offerings help radiologists with their workload which could help lead to quicker diagnosis and treatment for patients.
The collaboration is intended to offer healthcare providers an AI-enabled platform with a catalog of third-party AI applications that span various clinical area use cases, ranging from mammography to lung scans.2
“We are focused in providing enterprise imaging to enable precision care. The integration with Blackford’s AI-enabled solution will help radiologists access more insights when diagnosing patients. With so much unstructured data and radiologists overloaded on cases, they need a solution that can help increase their quality and diagnose faster,” said Ludovic d’Apréa, CEO of Solutions for Enterprise Imaging, GE HealthCare.
An RSNA survey of 13,000 radiologists last year found that 49% reported burnout and the top cause of burnout (60%) is excessive bureaucratic tasks.1 One-third report excessive work hours and lack of autonomy over their life, while 28% report frustrations related to the use of medical records.2 Based on these trends, GE HealthCare is developing solutions integrated with AI to help improve workflow efficiency so clinicians can spend more time with patients and focus more on the right care pathway.
With this collaboration, GE HealthCare’s PACS and Centricity PACS users will gain fast and easy access to the industry’s growing portfolio of imaging AI-enabled solutions to support improved efficiency, accuracy, and quality of radiology services.
AI is central to GE HealthCare’s digital strategy, which focuses on its precision care framework that includes smart devices, targeted therapies, a disease-specific focus, and digital solutions. GE HealthCare has topped a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) list of AI-enabled medical devices with 80 listed 510(k) clearances or authorizations to date in the United States.3
AI orchestration is an enterprise capability, designed to enable healthcare providers to access a curated selection of clinical imaging applications with minimal effort and overhead. It provides a single contact for sourcing a variety of clinical applications and a validated and easier process for integrating AI into your reading workflows.
“Blackford is committed to delivering AI solutions that broaden clinical and operational AI usage and drive additional value for healthcare organizations and their patients,” said Ben Panter, CEO at Blackford. “The collaboration with GE HealthCare will help unlock the benefits a tailored AI platform approach can provide to more healthcare providers via a leading global healthcare provider.”
