Czech hospitals are adopting AI systems to improve X-ray and CT scan analysis, boosting diagnostic accuracy and efficiency.

Key Implementations

  • Nemocnice Šumperk: Uses Carebot’s AI to detect lung abnormalities (90% accuracy), aiding young radiologists in training and reducing errors. Tested on 3,500+ patients.
  • Pelhřimov Hospital: Deploys Gleamer’s AI for urgent care and skeletal measurements, prioritizing high-risk cases.
  • Kladno Hospital: The hospital implements Brainomix for stroke CT scans and Carebot for chest X-rays, while gastroenterologists use AI for polyp detection.
  • Havířov Hospital: Pioneered AI in radiology, serving as a testing ground for Carebot’s system.

Benefits

  • Speed: AI accelerates evaluations, which is critical during emergencies.
  • Consistency: Reduces diagnostic discrepancies (35% disagreement rate among radiologists).
  • Future Plans: Expansion to mammography, bone fractures, and cardiac diagnostics.

AI acts as a “second pair of eyes”, enhancing workflows without replacing physicians.
