Tech Giant Offers Wales Preview of New AI X-ray Unit - Business News Wales

Global tech giant Fujifilm has given Welsh healthcare professionals an exclusive first look at its latest medical innovation ahead of the product's global clinical launch. The Japanese multinational photography and imaging company, which is a pioneer in medical imaging and diagnostics equipment, previewed its new artificial intelligence (AI) software, which is integrated into a mobile radiography system, at an event hosted by Life Sciences Hub Wales. Flown in from Tokyo for the event, the FDR nano is a mobile X-ray unit that uses integrated AI technology to quickly identify and flag abnormalities that need further investigation. The product is the first Fujifilm AI-enabled mobile unit in Europe and is due to commence clinical trials in a UK hospital. The AI in the unit highlights suspicious areas on an image to the radiographer taking the X-ray using a heat map.
