Data Driven Insights: The Role of AI in Radiology's Evolution

AI biases can emerge if algorithms are not validated on diverse populations.

qER, Qure.ai's AI solution for head CTs, has been rigorously evaluated using real-world, multi-regional data. As a result, qER reliably delivers excellent outcomes as a fully operational product for diverse populations globally. It has been extensively tested, deployed, and proven accurate across diverse patient demographics and scanning equipment, instilling true confidence in qER's reliability anywhere.

Qure's FDA-cleared qER software has gained traction in North America for its ability to swiftly and accurately triage, detect, and quantify pathology on head CTs. Covering four critical markers - hemorrhage, mass effect, midline shift, and fractures - qER delivers comprehensive insights to prioritize critical cases.

Monitoring severity over time aids in the long-term management of conditions such as hemorrhagic stroke and hydrocephalus. Input from North American hospitals and teleradiology groups guided qER's emphasis on essential CT measurements for emergency triage.

Additionally, qER-Quant leverages intelligent algorithms to precisely quantify volumes of intracranial structures and lesions. By determining the severity and progression of conditions like hemorrhagic stroke and hydrocephalus, qER-Quant further augments diagnostic and treatment decisions.

A study reviewed by vRad validated the qER algorithm against radiologist findings on more than 300,000 head CT scans. In one of the largest* evaluations conducted, qER delivered an outstanding AUC of 0.96, showcasing its ability to reduce door-to-scan interpretation times by up to 96% and accelerate communication of critical results to stroke teams within 5 minutes.

A noteworthy study published in The Lancet demonstrates a crucial validation of deep learning's capabilities in detecting urgent abnormalities on CT scans, using a diverse 300k scan dataset sourced from 20 centers in India. Key findings demonstrate exceptional diagnostic accuracy, with AUC values of 0.92 for detecting intracranial hemorrhage and over 0.90 for other specific bleed types.

Aarthi Scans and Labs, one of India's largest diagnostic chains, has adopted AI to enhance their teleradiology reporting - including for remote Tier 3 cities lacking nighttime radiologist coverage. This enables faster diagnosis and treatment for time-sensitive trauma cases. One deployment at Aarthi's Tenkasi center showed great insight into AI's clinical impact.

In Tenkasi, patients with conditions like stroke or traumatic brain injury used to wait over 7 hours

from the onset of symptoms to receive treatment due to delays in scan analysis, transfer to tertiary hospitals, etc.

According to Dr. Arunkumar Govindarajan, Aarthi's Director, "qER reduced symptom-to-treatment time by 30-70%, allowing more patients to be managed locally. By getting AI's assistance for faster diagnosis 24/7, cities like this could revolutionize outcomes for time-sensitive neurological injuries and disease."

A study detailed in Diagnostic Neuroradiology further cements the value of qER, focusing on the crucial aspect of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) management—hematoma volume quantification. Hematoma volume is a pivotal predictor of patient outcomes post-ICH, and the study aimed to validate a novel, fully automated software developed by Qure.ai for this purpose.

The study analyzed a significant patient population from the Swedish Stroke Register, including all patients diagnosed with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in Region Skåne from 2016 to 2019.
