Artificial Intelligence in Medicine

Becoming a Global Brand for Data Intelligence in Healthcare

AI Center for Medical Diagnosis develops AI-based diagnostic tools for prevention, prognosis, diagnosis, and therapy. Detecting meniscus tears and assessing pediatric bone age are AI diagnostic tools that use medical imaging. Other essential applications are NLP in electronic medical records and AI analysis of physiological signals. For instance, an intelligent antimicrobial system (iAMS) can predict the risk of sepsis after infection, assisting clinicians in diagnosing and early treatment, reducing patients' risk of death. Electrophysiological signals include ECG arrhythmias, AI-aided diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction, sleep apnea assessment, brain wave detection of epilepsy, etc. The 24/7 STEMI Detection Software for Acute Myocardial Infarction successfully diagnoses 12 types of arrhythmia and myocardial infarctions in an ambulance before patients arriving hospitals. This application is now a significant part of the Central Taiwan AI Saving Heart Network. 

AI Innovation Center has developed the " Intelligent Rapid Prediction System for Drug-resistant Bacteria," which combines clinical mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF) and machine learning to predict bacterial resistance within one hour (previously 3-5 days) and accurately use antibiotics. This technique was honored with the Taipei Biotech Awards and the National Innovation Award.
