The Center for Clinical Data Science (CCDS), Boston, is at the confluence of major technology trends driving the healthcare industry: AI-based diagnostics of large volumes of medical images, shared among multiple medical institutions, utilizing GPU-based neural networks. Founded by Massachusetts General Hospital and later joined by Brigham & Women's Hospital, CCDS today announced it has received what it calls a purpose-built AI supercomputer from the portfolio of Nvidia DGX systems with Volta, said by Nvidia to be the biggest GPU on the market. Later this month, CCDS will also receive a DGX Station, which Nvidia calls "a personal AI supercomputer," that the organization will use to develop new training algorithms "and bring the power of AI directly to doctors" in the form of a desk-side system. The idea is to provide Boston-area radiologists with AI "assistants" integrated into their daily workflows, helping them more quickly and accurately diagnose disease from MRIs, CAT scans, X-rays and other medical images. CCDS said the trained neural networks residing on DGX-1 systems in its data center "are in a constant state of learning, continually ingesting countless medical images worldwide."
