Artificial intelligence could help save kidneys - VAntage Point
Researchers from VA and the artificial intelligence company DeepMind, part of Google, have developed technology that has the potential to predict a life-threatening kidney condition up to two days before it happens. The findings appeared July 31 in the journal Nature. Using VA data, the researchers developed an artificial intelligence model to detect acute kidney injury in patients up to 48 hours before it would otherwise be identified. Acute kidney injury can progress to kidney failure that requires dialysis. It can also affect other organs and cause death.
