The impact of AI on diagnostic accuracy
Dr. Melisa Ravelo
Santo Domingo.- Médico Express highlights the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in modern medicine, improving safety, evaluation, and diagnosis of diseases. Dr. Melisa Ravelo, the center’s Medical Imaging coordinator, emphasizes their advanced diagnostic technology, including the 3D Senographe Pristina mammography, which uses AI to enhance image quality, reduce exam discomfort, and lower radiation doses.
The center also features the Signa Prime 1.5 Tesla MRI and the 128-slice GE Revolution CT scanner, both using AI to improve image clarity and speed up diagnoses while minimizing radiation exposure. Additionally, the Voluson S8 ultrasound system for maternal-fetal imaging integrates AI for clearer images and faster diagnoses, raising the standard of care.
AI enables efficient processing of large data volumes, identifying patterns and anomalies that aid in the early detection and prevention of diseases like cancer and cardiovascular conditions, leading to better patient outcomes.
