In the days before picture archiving and communication systems (PACS), collaboration between various hospital departments was extremely difficult, as clinicians could only consult with each other in person. Today, enterprise imaging allows providers to interact from wherever they are with all of the relevant clinical data stored in one place.
Artificial intelligence (AI) has captured the imagination and attention of doctors over the past couple years as several companies and large research hospitals work to perfect these systems for clinical use. The first concrete examples of how AI (also called deep learning, machine learning or artificial neural networks) will help clinicians are now being commercialized. These systems may offer a paradigm shift in how clinicians work in an effort to significantly boost workflow efficiency, while at the same time improving care and patient throughput.
