GE HealthCare Highlights Commitment to Delivering Better Patient Experiences and Outcomes Through Deep Learning at RSNA 2023

GE HealthCare

Through its leading imaging solutions and commitment to innovation, GE HealthCare remains at the forefront of leveraging deep learning, a subset of artificial intelligence (AI), to benefit a multitude of clinicians and patients. True Enhance DLi for CT is the latest addition to GE HealthCare’s growing Effortless Recon DL portfolio of deep learning-based solutions – which also includes AIR Recon DL for MR and PET/MR, Sonic DL for MR, TrueFidelity DL for CT, Precision DL for PET/CT, and Helix for X-ray – with the goal of improving image quality and helping to better inform clinical decision-making for improved patient outcomes.

When diagnosing patients in areas where every second counts, like neurology, oncology and cardiology, clinicians need fast, clear and reliable imaging technologies. GE HealthCare is committed to using deep learning to accelerate and improve diagnostics through efficient workflows and faster exam times. These technologies have benefited millions of patients globally.

“The potential of deep learning to create more efficient workflows and allow more patients to receive essential medical imaging services without compromising quality is boundless,” said Jan Makela, President & CEO of Imaging at GE HealthCare. “GE HealthCare aims to address critical challenges in the imaging field such as workflow inefficiencies, staff burnout and shortages, and the need for broader access to state-of-the-art imaging. We’re proud to be at the forefront of deep learning integration and to share our Effortless Recon DL portfolio of solutions driven by this game-changing technology at RSNA 2023.”

Innovations from GE HealthCare in molecular imaging and computed tomography (MICT), magnetic resonance (MR) and x-ray that leverage deep learning are making state-of-the-art imaging accessible to healthcare practices and their patients across multiple care areas. These include:

  • True Enhance DLii uses a dedicated Deep Neural Network (DNN) designed to generate deep learning-based monochromatic-like images from single-energy X-ray. It is designed to enhance contrast resolution for confident diagnosis, especially for challenging oncology cases or pulmonary embolism evaluation. The AI-based solution aims to provide clinicians a simple workflow and incredible image quality without a radiation penalty.
  • TrueFidelity DL is available across the company’s Revolution Apex and Revolution Ascend platforms, leveraging a DNN to generate high-definition, low-noise CT images with exceptional sharpness, low-contrast image quality with preferred noise textureiii, at the same dose.iv GE HealthCare is also excited to expand TrueFidelity DL to lung and extremity at this year’s show. Exclusively available on Revolution Apex platform, these new features enable high resolution imaging to increase visual sharpness with reduced noise for confident reporting and accepted image texture.
  • Precision DL is a deep learning-based image processing software designed to enhance image quality in PET/CT scans, providing clinicians with a powerful tool to aid in precise diagnoses and treatment planning with the image quality performance benefits typically associated with hardware-based Time of Flight (ToF) reconstruction, including improved contrast-to-noise ratio, contrast recovery,and quantitative accuracy.
