Artificial intelligence helps to diagnose brain disorders - Helsinkismart

Brain hemorrhage is a sudden and very dangerous disorder. For example, subarachnoid hemorrhage, which is most common within the middle-aged, kills 75 percent of the patients within a year, if left unnoticed. "Brain hemorrhages are difficult to detect, because the symptoms can include only a headache," says Taru Hermens, project manager at the Helsinki University Hospital (HUS). Diagnosing brain hemorrhages is done by radiologists who interpret the results of head imaging scans. In the Finnish hospitals, six million medical imaging examinations are performed every year, and about 180,000 of those are computerised tomography (CT) scans of the head.
