Leuven, Belgium / Boston, US - January 25, 2021 - icometrix today announced that its icobrain software portfolio will be available on the Nuance® AI Marketplace, the largest portal with one-stop access to a wide range of AI solutions. The Nuance® AI Marketplace is accessible from within Nuance PowerScribeTM, the industry’s most widely used radiology reporting platform.
icometrix offers a portfolio of AI solutions to assist healthcare with various challenges. The icobrain software extracts data from brain MRI and CT scans for the radiological reporting and clinical management of acute and chronic neurological disorders such as multiple sclerosis, brain trauma, epilepsy, stroke, dementia, and Alzheimer's disease.
The Nuance AI Marketplace functions like an app store dedicated to radiology. It gives AI developers consolidated, at-scale access to users of Nuance PowerScribeTM, the radiology reporting system trusted by approximately 80 percent of U.S. radiologists across more than 8,000 connected healthcare facilities. Radiologists can discover, test, and use AI models from within their familiar PowerScribe reporting and workflow orchestration solutions to increase reporting efficiency and quality and to help care teams improve patient outcomes and healthcare costs. A built-in feedback channel lets users share real-world results with developers for algorithm refinement and post-market surveillance. Hospital systems benefit from simplified purchasing and metrics showing AI usage, costs, and performance.
“Today, most of our clients worldwide work with us directly, allowing us to listen carefully to our users and optimize icobrain to be more than just an AI algorithm.” Dr. Dirk Smeets (CTO at icometrix) starts. “But now, we are at a stage where we believe the market is ready to scale this solution and make a larger clinical impact. Partnering with Nuance will definitely support that scaling.”
