Advanced visualization firm TeraRecon is showing new functionality for its Northstar AI Explorer software, which allows users to view images and reports created by artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms and also to interact with them.
At this week's Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) annual meeting in National Harbor, MD, TeraRecon is showing how Northstar AI Explorer's AI-assisted workflow and software provider EnvoyAI's platform work with automated end-to-end cardiac MR analysis workflow from software developer Corstem.
The prototype workflow starts with anatomic contours and clinical assumptions generated by Corstem AI, which are quickly verified or adjusted. Next, physician feedback is sent to the Corstem application that is hosted on the EnvoyAI platform. The workflow then completes the cardiac function and quantitative pixel-wise perfusion analyses, marks updated findings in images, and creates a report. Radiologists can make adjustments and send the results to a permanent archive such as a PACS or vendor-neutral archive (VNA).
Northstar AI Explorer includes a user interface that is compatible with all major PACS, electronic medical record (EMR), and enterprise viewing platforms. Clinicians can use this interface to review and adjust individual measurements, markings, and findings produced by AI image processing algorithms, according to the firm.
The companies also recently installed the software at Wake Radiology in Raleigh, NC.
