Partnership between UCrest-Key ASIC with IAIH to develop AI in iMedic platform

 

 


 

KUALA LUMPUR 21 Dis. - UCrest Bhd. and Key ASIC Bhd. have signed a strategic partnership agreement with International Alliance of Intelligent Health (IAIH) to jointly develop and promote the use of Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Medical Things technologies on the iMedic platform for diagnosis and therapeutic of diseases. 

 

A network of 820 hospitals that specialize in preventive lung cancer and other thoracic diseases will be adopting iMedic and AI technologies. 

 

The technologies will be used in the analysis of lung nodules of the CT Scan, enabling doctors to better manage the patients.

 

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of UCrest and Key ASIC, Kah Yee Eg said, AI healthcare will not only provide the medical services at the expert level but also the consistent quality of services. 

 

He added, AI is also capable of self-learning and enhance intelligence continuously. 

 

"We are excited to play a leading role in driving the development of AI health making such technologies available to doctors and patients all over the world," he said in a joint statement today. 

 

Championed by Professor Dr. Chunxie Bai, the world-renowned respiratory and thoracic expert in China, IAIH is an alliance spearheaded by the International Society of Respiratory Diseases (ISRD) and the gorup is one of the founding members of the alliance. 

 

IAIH is an international initiative that leads to the development and adoption of using AI in the diagnosis and therapy of various diseases globally.


In addition to hundreds of patents, inventions, and publications, one of the greatest breakthroughs of Bai is the use of AI to diagnose and detect lung nodules which may be an early sign of lung cancer so that the disease can be treated as early as possible. 

 

This capability can be further enhanced with the iMedic platform and the IOT and AI technologies from the group.

 

Meanwhile, Bai said, the objective of IAIH is to be the platform for the development and usage of AI health by doctors globally so that patients can be effectively treated by expert knowledge with a high degree of consistency and quality.
