When AI Looks at X-Rays: Interview with Qure.ai CEO, Prashant Warier

If you follow the recent advances in medical technology and artificial intelligence, you may have heard people make bold claims that AI will replace tomorrow's doctors. While there are still ways to go for technology to reach these sci-fi levels, many companies are actively designing AI systems that will accompany doctors or assist them with their daily tasks. One particularly challenging task has been to enable algorithms to examine medical images and make intelligent conclusions, create reports, or provide recommendations. CEO, Prashant Warier, about the strides his company has made in automating the analysis of head CTs and chest X-rays. Mohammad Saleh, Medgadget: Can you tell us about your background and how you came to be a part of Qure.ai? I have been a data scientist for pretty much my whole career.
