Phillips, Paige Bring Use Clinical Artificial Intelligence to Help with Cancer Treatment - My TechDecisions

With the help of computational pathology firm Paige, healthcare technology giant Royal Phillips is bringing clinical artificial intelligence to pathology laboratories to help improve a pathologist's workflow and treatment planning for patients. According to a joint news release Thursday, this strategic collaboration will first start with Paige Prostate to help pathologists quantify and characterize cancer in tissue samples and make precise and efficient diagnoses. The release noted the need for more advanced cancer diagnosis technology as the number of cancer cases rises. Glass slide-based laboratory workflows are being converted to digital using solutions like ones offered by Phillips. Once digital images are created, the CE-marked Paige Prostate software is applied automatically to detect and localize prostate cancer, providing pathologists with valuable information they can use to evaluate prostate biopsies.
