GE HealthCare and Boston, MA-based Mass General Brigham (MGB) plan to integrate medical imaging foundation models into AI research work, with a focus on responsible AI practices.
This work builds on a 10-year commitment undertaken by both organizations in 2017, which has seen the two working together on AI platforms and exploring the use of AI across a range of diagnostic and treatment models through sustainable AI development.
One area of exploration for the organizations revolves around foundation models, which they said have the potential to improve workflow efficiency and imaging diagnosis by solving a diverse set of tasks. They praised foundation models as being a reliable and adaptable foundation for developing AI applications tailored to the healthcare sector.
