A large language model-powered AI assistant developed in Hong Kong has demonstrated high accuracy in thyroid cancer staging and risk classification.
A team of researchers from the Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong (HKUMed), the InnoHK Laboratory of Data Discovery for Health, and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine conducted the study which built what...
Seoul National University Hospital has developed what could be the first medical large language model in South Korea.
The project to develop the medical LLM began last year in March. The SNUH research team started by collecting 38 million clinical texts, including hospital admissions, outpatients, surgical, prescription, and nursing records, and de-identified and anonymised them to create a base...
Asan Medical Center has developed a voice-based clinical documentation system powered by a large language model.
HOW IT WORKS
The system automatically records and analyses conversations – including identifying symptoms and classifying diseases – between and among staff and patients in near real-time. It also creates patients' medical records on the spot which are automatically saved to AMIS 3.0,...
A team of engineers at The Chinese University of Hong Kong has developed an AI-based blood pressure management system featuring a large language model from DeepSeek.
HOW IT WORKS
The system called Dr PAI (personalised AI doctor) integrates wearable technology with DeepSeek to enable 24/7 monitoring and tracking of dynamic blood pressure changes and heart rate variability. It also collects...
Engineers from the University of Hong Kong have developed a generative AI-based imaging method that supports cancer diagnosis.
HOW IT WORKS
CytoMAD (Cyto-Morphology Adversarial Distillation) combines AI and microfluidic technology to do label-free imaging of tumours at the individual cell level. It can capture cell images "at great speed, enhance these images, and automatically correct...
2024 saw the rise of many generative AI applications in various industries, including healthcare, driving work and operational efficiencies like never before.
It is also one of the technology solutions that came out of an accelerator programme by the National University of Singapore Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine and 22Health Ventures. Interestingly, the clinical AI copilot might have been...
An AI startup supported by conglomerate SK Group has introduced what could be the first pharmacy-specific platform powered by generative AI in South Korea.
Intended for use by professionals in the pharmaceutical industry, including researchers and pharmacists, the search platform called Cheiron is the flagship AI solution by PhynX Lab, a Silicon Valley-based venture under SK Networks.
HOW IT...
Collaborative research in Asia has called for prudence in using popular large language model-based (LLM) chatbots as part of public health research and response.
In a study, which findings were published in BMJ, researchers from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, RMIT University in Vietnam, and the National University of Singapore explored whether or not LLMs bridge or exacerbate the digital...
Hippocratic AI, a generative AI company developing safety-focused large language models for healthcare, is launching a Nurse Advisory Council that will work in conjunction with its Physician Advisory Council to ensure the safe development of its LLMs aimed at increasing care equity, the supply and availability of healthcare workers, and better healthcare access and outcomes.
The California-based...
