This software combines computer vision and deep learning inference to allow an algorithm to spot X-rays that should be reviewed first.

GE Healthcare and Intel have a new software hardware combination that can get the most critical X-rays to the top an ER doctor's review stack. The new solution puts GE's mobile, digital X-ray system, its artificial intelligence-powered Critical Care Suite, and Intel's computer vision platform OpenVINO in one product. The Critical Care algorithms are embedded in the imaging devices to speed up image processing time. OpenVINO improves computing power to allow hospitals to deploy this new service on existing hardware. "So, the thing that's actually capturing the images is also doing the processing," said Todd Minnigh, CMO X-Ray, GE Healthcare, in a press release.
