In this Intel on AI podcast episode: The COVID-19 coronavirus, since its initial outbreak, has quickly become a global pandemic and the inadequate amount of lab tests available for people suspected of infection have posed serious risks to public health and efforts in containing the virus. Jingwen Jia (Wendy), the Assistant General Manager at Huiying Medical (HYHY), joins the Intel on AI podcast to discuss how the HYHY imaging diagnostic solution assists healthcare providers to detect and diagnose potential COVID-19 infections by analyzing computed tomography (CT) chest scans with AI-powered algorithms. She discusses how the HYHY solution is a complementary tool to help doctors make diagnosis quickly by analyzing the ground-glass opacity (GGO) and other indicators revealed in lung CT imagery. The HYHY solution has already been deployed in 30+ hospitals throughout China. Wendy emphasizes how, with the help of AI, the HYHY solution can help doctors detect the virus quickly, helping patients receive the care they need faster and assisting with the tracking and containment of the COVID-19 virus. She also discusses how HYHY has collaborated with Intel through the Intel Capital and Intel AI Builders programs to optimize their solutions to run on Intel architecture and the Intel Distribution of OpenVINO toolkit to help give healthcare providers a powerful tool to help combat the COVID-19 pandemic around the world.
