AI-Based Analysis of Dynamic Digital Radiography Data Gives Researchers Greater Insight into Lung Function and Pulmonary Disorders

Imaging Technology

We are excited about the ability to deploy this in emergency room, inpatient and intensive care medicine. “Using our AI-based software and DDR, we can generate digital PFT's (dPFTs) which might be used as surrogates for pulmonary function testing. Chest radiography is typically acquired in the evaluation of pulmonary disorders.
