The event is organised by the Vietnamese Society of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, sponsored by GE HealthCare. GE HealthCare is expected to introduce modern and comprehensive technologies and solutions in such fields as Oncology, Cardiology, Neurology linked with artificial intelligence (AI) technology, helping to optimise the workflow for doctors and bring breakthrough values in diagnosis, treatment and post-treatment for patients.

According to GE HealthCar representative, AI-integrated imaging technology is revolutionizing the way doctors diagnose and treat cancer, providing faster, more accurate and cost-effective solutions.
AI is rapidly transforming many different fields and healthcare is no exception. One of the most promising applications of AI is the field of diagnostic imaging.

According to Market.US, the global diagnostic imaging market is valued at $33 billion, driven by AI. AI is now deeply integrated into diagnostic devices including ultrasound (US), X-ray, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET) to create an ecosystem worth $1.1 billion in 2023, and will continue to grow rapidly by 10 times - to $10.6 billion in the next 10 years.

Countries with advanced medical systems are also paving the way for AI to reshape the field of cancer diagnosis and treatment. In June 2024, the European Society of Radiology (ESR) and the European Confederation of Cancer Images (EUCAIM) launched the “Advancing Precision Medicine for European Cancer Patients with AI-Assisted Imaging” network to unlock the power of AI against cancer.

AI applications bring a lot of potential and practical value in the context of cancer continuously increasing at a high level. Through supporting early detection and more accurate diagnosis, AI helps doctors adjust more personalized, optimal and timely treatment regimens for patients to increase their survival chances. At the same time, AI also promises to reduce the workload and time for doctors, in line with the current reality of medical human resource shortage.
