Artificial Intelligence and COVID-19

ImagingNation, brought to you by the Biomedical Engineering and Imaging Institute at the Icahn School of Medicine, strives to provide insight to audiences of all backgrounds to past, present, and future principles of imaging, medicine, and biomedical engineering. In this episode, Dr. Yang Yang, Assistant Professor of Radiology at BMEII, Dr. Adam Bernheim, and Dr. Michael Chung, both Assistant Professors of Radiology at the Icahn School of Medicine, and Jazz Munitz, Associate Researcher of nanoimmunotherapeutics and Manager of Preclinical Nuclear Imaging, discuss BMEII's exciting new AI algorithm designed in collaboration with scientists from China, which combines clinical presentations, patient history, and chest X-Rays to diagnose COVID-19. Furthermore, exploration of this new diagnostic tool is tied into considerations of AI's integration in radiology.
