AI has the Potential to Speed Up Treatment
Dr. Peter Chang, our director at the Center for Applied AI Research, discusses the details of currently how much AI is integrated clinically and also how it could speed up healthcare. The areas of healthcare where AI could make a huge difference are also discussed.
Integrating AI Technology into Neurological Imaging
Dr. Christopher Filippi, Dr. Daniel Chow and Dr. Mai-Lan Ho presents current and future considerations for AI in clinical neuroimaging at RSNA 2022. In our co-director's, Dr. Daniel Chow, talk, he provides a discussion where the integration of successful AI algorithms into clinical practice can often be more difficult than we think, but once successfully integrated, the way radiology is done can change dramatically.
A New Era for Precision Health
A collaboration of many different expert fields from health sciences, engineering, genomics, AI and data science has started in order to develop personalized healthcare for each individual patient. The goals of the precision health and contributions of the different expert fields are discussed in this article.

UCI researchers study use of machine learning to improve stroke diagnosis
Clinicians Dr. Soun, Dr. Chang and Dr. Chow began a study to evaluate the effectiveness of AI based tools on how it can aid the detection of large vessel occlusions (LVO) to help with stroke triage. The study aims to improve overall stroke detection, workflow of care and stroke patient survival.
UCI Announces Launch of Institute for Precision Health
UCI announces the launch of the Institute for Precision Health which combines the different fields of health sciences, engineering, machine learning, artificial intelligence, clinical genomics and data science in order to develop cutting edge treatment plans for each individual patient. Precision medicine will collect the patient's medical data and use the power of predictive modeling to create such plans.
Patients Hospitalized ‘with COVID’ is Increasing Relative to ‘for COVID’
When COVID began as a pandemic, our co-director, Dr. Daniel Chow had estimated that ~90% of admitted patients in the university's medical center have been admitted for COVID-related symptoms. However, as the vaccines have been rolled out and the more mild omicron variant being the more dominant, Dr. Chow had noticed a shift to a 50-50 split among COVID positive patients who were admitted for COVID symptoms vs COVID positive patients who were admitted for other non-COVID related reasons.
