Track medicines in real time with Samsung Health
Samsung Electronics has begun rolling out new medication tracking features in the Samsung Health app to help users manage their medications and improve medication adherence.
This feature helps users track prescription and over-the-counter medications. It is also licensed by Elsevier and provides users with detailed information about the medications they are taking, including potential side effects and reactions.
Users can enter details such as the color and shape of the medication, as well as the dose and time of administration. You can also set alerts for taking and refilling your medications. This feature allows you to prioritize reminders according to their importance and urgency. Additionally, this feature can also send reminders via Galaxy Watch.
Indian researchers develop AI to detect carpal tunnel syndrome
A research team from the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), in collaboration with Aster CMI Hospital, is using AI to identify the median nerve in ultrasound videos to diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), a common nerve-related disease. I created a tool.
They tuned a machine learning model originally developed to detect dozens of objects in YouTube videos simultaneously to detect only the median nerve. He with CTS was trained using ultrasound videos collected from Aster CMI patients and patients without CTS.
The AI ​​model can segment the median nerve in individual frames of an ultrasound video and automatically measure the cross-sectional area of ​​the nerve, which is typically done by a sonographer. manually.
Researchers are currently training an AI model to detect all nerves in the upper and lower limbs. It was also deployed for pilot testing on Aster CMI.
CU Medicine doubles down on AI for endoscopy training
The Chinese University of Hong Kong Faculty of Medicine (CU Medicine) recently conducted a study to validate the use of AI in the detection of colorectal cancer.
The study tested an AI-assisted endoscopy system that was first introduced in early 2021. The AI ​​technology used as a guide by the 22 participating endoscopists-in-training showed a 40% improvement in adenoma detection.
Meanwhile, CU Medicine recently introduced AI-Endo, an AI-enabled surgical support platform for complex endoscopic submucosal dissection procedures to remove early-stage gastrointestinal cancer tissue.
Dr. Yip Hong-chi, associate professor of surgery at the University of California School of Medicine, said the platform has saved endoscopists training time and has proven to be a “reliable” tool to assist with procedures.
