AIMday Medical Imaging and Diagnostics
Date: Thursday, November 28, 2024
Location: Virtual
Cost: Free for all participants
Medical imaging facilitates the early detection and treatment of medical conditions, potentially saving lives. These technologies provide detailed information that informs treatment plans, guides surgical interventions and enables follow-up by monitoring treatment efficacy. Despite their benefits, there is significant room for improvements to provide quicker diagnoses and real-time information during surgery. AIMday Medical Imaging & Diagnostics offers a unique opportunity for organizations to engage with academic experts in meaningful dialogue, discussing ideas and charting new paths to address the industry’s challenges in enhancing image quality and accelerating diagnoses.
