Acute stroke care services serve to bridge distances and enhance access to medical services that aren't always available in isolated rural areas. Acute stroke care services can save lives in emergency and severe situations. Recent research has demonstrated that combining telemedicine with advanced scientific technology like artificial intelligence offers incredible results in the field of healthcare.
Prof. Ken Butcher, Director of Neurocritical Services at the University of New South Wales, and Pushpendra Rawat, from Qure.AI, go through the tele-stroke network in-depth, its importance, and the problems of implementing it.
Stroke is the No. 5 cause of death and a leading cause of adult disability in the U.S.
On average, someone in the U.S. suffers a stroke every 40 seconds, and nearly 795,000 people suffer a new or recurrent stroke each year. Early stroke detection and treatment are key to improving survival, minimizing disability, and speeding recovery times. LifeBridge Health is a non-profit healthcare corporation that was formed in 1998 and currently operates several medical institutions in and around Baltimore, Maryland.
Here is an insight into the discussion between Dr. Neil Roy (NR) who is the Chief of Emergency Medicine at LifeBridge Hospital and Chiranjiv Singh (CS), the Chief Commercial Officer at Qure.ai , as Dr. Roy shares his experience on the regular wear off experienced by any emergency specialist and how AI adoption to support clinical workflow ensures best patient outcomes.

Qure.ai and the India Health Fund (IHF) have been collaborating to scale up the use of advanced technologies like Artificial Intelligence for Tuberculosis (TB) screening and to develop a point-of-care system to digitize analog Chest X-ray films. As part of this effort, we aim to reach as many lives as possible, through partners who can adopt the technology for improving TB screening programs.
Here is a conversation between IHF head, Madhav Joshi and Prashant Warier on the synergies and how tech can make an impact in improving public healthcare systems across the globe. If you are a national TB program, NGO, CBO, academic institution, or a partnership that is looking to improve your TB screening program in India, reach out to us and we'd be happy to collaborate on the work we do along with IHF.

Here is a deeper dive into how the versatility of chest x-rays and Artificial Intelligence helped the financial capital of India in efforts to containing this pandemic.
Bolton NHS Foundation Trust was the first in the UK to use Qure.ai’s technology to help medics monitor covid-19 progression in patients.
The tool automates the interpretation of coronavirus proliferation from chest X-rays, making it easier for healthcare professionals to monitor the extent and rate of progression of the viral infection. Dr. Rizwan Malik of Bolton NHS Foundation Trust speaks to Rohit Ghosh and shares his experience of deploying AI to manage COVID-19 (20.00), as well as offers pointers to others looking to implement AI solutions (22.00).

Don't miss the Rapid questions bit!
Tuberculosis (TB) is a particularly pertinent problem in the Philippines. More than 70 Filipinos die due to TB every day, a curable and preventable disease. An estimated 65,000 TB cases remain undetected and untreated. These are called the ‘missing TB cases’.
Advancing Client-centered Care and Expanding Sustainable Services for TB (ACCESS TB) is a three-year project under the Philippines Global Fund TB grant, managed by the Philippine Business for Social Progress (PBSP). The project has begun pushing 4 strategies as part of the efforts to find the 'missing people' with TB.
Jerome Triñona has been working with the Access TB for the past few years. He speaks to Qure.ai's Operations head, Reshma Suresh. He walks us through the project's various initiatives to find the 'missing TB cases', the challenges they faced, and how they used technology to bring healthcare to the Philippines' vulnerable population.
