AI maps organ damage to predict hypertension risks
A new machine learning model proves that tracking silent organ damage is far more predictive of survival than standard blood pressure readings.
Danaher Acquires Masimo to Control Patient Monitoring
A life-sciences giant just bought its way from the laboratory bench directly to the hospital bedside.
AI detects early stroke on basic CT scans
A new algorithm can spot hyperacute stroke tissue changes on cheap, standard CT scans, but it struggles to map the exact boundaries of smaller lesions.
The Return of Simple Math
Clinical AI models are increasingly being outperformed by, or failing to improve upon, traditional statistical methods and established clinical formulas in critical predictive tasks.
Why pharma wants smart rings on GLP-1 patients
A new partnership between a smart ring maker and a pharmaceutical giant reveals how drugmakers are using consumer hardware to keep patients compliant.
Three flagship AI models fail breast cancer diagnosis
Hiring a commercial AI to read breast cancer biopsies does not just introduce errors; it forces clinicians to choose which specific flavor of diagnostic failure they can tolerate.
AI agents now manage chronic disease patients
A massive new funding round proves that health systems are ready to delegate daily clinical tasks to supervised AI agents.
AI translates cancer scans into simple bilingual reports
Automated translation of complex radiology scans can finally bypass the medical jargon barrier, but only if radiologists remain the ultimate gatekeepers.
AI turns simple EKGs into advanced heart screens
A routine test that costs pennies can now spot hidden heart failures before symptoms even appear.
AI extracts liver disease data from clinical text
A new study shows that off-the-shelf language models can reconstruct complex patient histories from messy clinical notes without manual human labeling.
