AI Steps Up for Hospital COVID-19 Screening

#artificialintelligence

Once again, artificial intelligence shows its potential for sifting through massive amounts of medical test data to deliver actionable results, this time with COVID-19 screening in hospitals and emergency departments. We've written numerous posts about AI applications in medicine, often for diagnostics. For example, we covered AI assisting with autism spectrum disorder diagnosis at the University of California Davis and Google Health's success with AI deep learning to improve breast cancer detection. A group of researchers from Oxford University and Harvard University developed two AI models for COVID-19 early-detection using routinely collected data in hospital emergency departments (EDs) and hospital admissions. Information is available in a research study preprint from medRxiv and bioRxiv.
