Summary
OSF HealthCare, which operates an extensive 18-hospital system in Peoria, Illinois, faced challenges in managing increased stroke cases and complex care demands, requiring a reliable method for patient transfers and a consistent imaging workflow. To overcome these obstacles, they adopted RapidAI's AI-driven medical imaging analysis platform, aimed at enhancing decision-making speed and accuracy, while also addressing the radiologist shortage. This technology improved triage processes and provided objective imaging insights, significantly reducing variability in interpretation and facilitating better care coordination. This case illustrates the growing role of AI in healthcare, particularly in enhancing clinical decision support and expanding treatment capabilities for conditions like stroke and aneurysms.
