We are hearing more about AI every day now and there has been an AI Breakthrough from NYU Langone Health and Facebook AI to Significantly Accelerate MRI Scans 
So, let’s find out “How fast MRI Would Be Better for Patients, Broaden Access to Scans, and Potentially Change How MRIs are Used” 

ABOUT fastMRI:

FastMRI is a joint research project from NYU Langone Health and Facebook AI to advance AI and enable faster MRI scans. 

FastMRI takes a very different approach than most research in AI for medical imaging. Unlike most projects, which try to use AI to automatically detect anomalies, Facebook is using AI to create accurate medical images from much less data. 

The FastMRI team has developed AI that can create MRI images from just a fraction of the raw data previously required. The code will be open-sourced so other researchers and MRI scanner manufacturers can build on and further test it. 

This rigorous clinical study shows FastMRI can work in the real world. With 4x less data, FastMRI creates images are as diagnostically accurate traditional MRIs. 

Faster MRI scans will be better for patients, clinics, and communities, and could even enable new use cases for MRIs.
