AI in echo - the foundations and new frontiers
In this webinar, Dr. Akhil Narang, Director of the Echocardiography Laboratory and Associate Professor of Medicine at Northwestern University, Feinberg School of Medicine and Bluhm Cardiovascular Institute, and Robert Rogers, BS, RDCS, RVT, National Strategic Business and Luminary Manager Philips, discuss the foundational technology and the new frontiers of AI in echocardiography.
Accelerating Ultrasound Innovation with NVIDIA
Philips has redefined ultrasound performance by integrating NVIDIA technology across a comprehensive portfolio—including cardiology, general imaging, obstetrics, gynecology, and point-of-care applications. This collaboration is intended to positively impact healthcare providers and patients, with NVIDIA GPU-based beamforming. A flexible, modular design supports faster adoption of the latest GPU advancements, simplifying upgrades and helping reduce total cost of ownership.
AI offers unprecedented new opportunities and developing an AI Code of Conduct will help to ensure equitable, ethical, safe and responsible use of AI in personal health and healthcare.
