Our hospital bought an AI stroke detector (viz.ai). The "AI" part is laughable but it allows the hospital to collect some extra HHS/medicare fee for using "imaging algorithms" or something. I suspect that company is potentially using anonymized scans to continue training their data, because the initial product was trained on some tiny sample of brain CT scans, like under 500.
The one plus for actual physicians and nurses is that at least they wrote a non-sucky PACS imaging interface for the iPhone so we can just pull up the plain scans and view them easier.
- cratermoon 5y agoWow, so a medical device which doesn't work is being used in what is essentially an unsupervised, non-random, non-blind trial? Why would that even pass the FDA smell test?
