Episode notes
AI Cuts Scan Time And Boosts Quality
- St. Jude uses AI to cut scan times and improve image quality, benefiting children by reducing sedation needs.
- AI-driven reconstruction also speeds radiologist workflows and can improve diagnostic accuracy.
AI For Precise Tumor Measurements
- At St. Jude, AI is being used experimentally for precise tumor measurement and response assessment.
- Paul Yi says volumetric AI measurements could replace crude single-dimension measures in research and future care.
Agentic AI As Virtual Tumor Boards
- Paul Yi envisions multi-agent AI 'councils' that simulate interdisciplinary tumor boards continuously.
- This could democratize expert consensus so every patient gets interdisciplinary guidance.
