Healthcare Perspectives No Two Patients Are Alike: How Can AI Monitor Neurodegenerative Diseases? (3/3)
Understanding neurodegenerative diseases require a lot of data to be collected and analyzed by the researchers involved. If they have accurate data that they can get deeper into, they increase the likelihood of identifying patterns that can lead to meaningful conclusions. That is why many researchers are now using AI in analyzing the vast amount of available data. This helps in getting accurate insights faster and sets the stage for future research dimensions.
Today, Lance Ladic, Siemens Healthineers’ Director of Strategic Innovation is joined by three guests - Claire Mackay, Professor of Imaging Neuroscience, University of Oxford, Dr. Andy Saykin, Professor of Radiology and Imaging Sciences at Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis, and Duygu Tosun-Turgut, Associate Professor at the University of California San Francisco in the Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging. They’ll help understand the role AI is playing in the fight against neurodegenerative diseases.
Stay tuned to learn about why it is difficult to predict how a neurodegenerative disease will progress in one patient based on data collected from other patients. You’ll also learn about the importance of data sharing among the groups doing research. Lastly, you’ll hear about the role that AI is playing in creating models that can be used in the detection, treatment, and monitoring of patients.
