“Investment in healthcare startups is exploding – but implementing new AI innovations effectively into the clinical workflow can be cumbersome and complex, thus slowing adoption. Bringing AI-powered applications and devices – such as those provided by MaxQ AI’s Accipio ICH platform – natively into the radiologists’ PACS system via GE Healthcare’s Edison Open AI Orchestrator can help clinicians improve their workflow and target key pain points in their healthcare network,” said Michelle Edler, Senior Vice President, Enterprise Imaging & Care Area Solutions for GE Healthcare. “To deliver on the promise of AI, we are integrating with best-in-breed partners such as MaxQ AI to help streamline the radiologist’s experience. Bringing together the world-class AI capabilities from industry-leading partners, and creating a single, connected ecosystem will help improve the quality of care, lower healthcare costs, and deliver better outcomes for patients.”

GE Healthcare’s PACS offers a proven, scalable imaging IT platform designed to optimize radiologist productivity and accuracy. With Version 7, GE Healthcare’s PACS is now “AI ready,” enabling the easy and seamless integration of AI results throughout the radiologist reading workflow by adding the Edison Open AI Orchestrator. This advanced PACS solution meets the diverse challenges and needs of today’s healthcare institutions with such innovations as single DB Rad/Card, RIS/PACS, native mammography workflow, advanced visualization, web-based clients, EMR integration, DR/BC and high availability, and most recently, mobile access on an Apple or Android enabled device.

MaxQ AI is demonstrating the company’s full suite of Accipio solutions throughout this week’s Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) 2019 Annual Meeting in Chicago at Booth #8345 in the North Hall. Accipio will also be on display at the GE Healthcare exhibit at Booth #4133 in the South Hall.
