The collaboration in this research and innovation ecosystem, called CleverHealth Network, is a part of CGI´s Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) strategy.\n \n \n The solution, named AI Head Analysis, has recently been approved to be retrospectively tested in workflow in\n \n Helsinki University\n \n Hospital. This means that the radiologist and artificial intelligence first analyze the images independently. After the radiologist has made his diagnosis, he can compare his assessment with the results of the AI. The research project has also opened\n \n a low-threshold, easy-to-use test environment for all the interested hospitals\n \n around the world.\n \n \n \"Each year, millions of people across the globe are diagnosed with some type of brain hemorrhage—an acute condition that requires a prompt and accurate diagnosis. In\n \n Finland\n \n alone, more than 180,000 head CT scans are performed annually, most of them at emergency clinics,\" said Miikka Korja, Chief Innovation Officer and a docent in neurology at the\n \n Helsinki University\n \n Hospital.\n \n \n \"This number is increasing year by year ...
