GTC—NVIDIA today announced that it is collaborating with Medtronic, the world’s largest healthcare technology provider, to accelerate the development of AI in the healthcare system and bring new AI-based solutions into patient care.
The companies will integrate NVIDIA healthcare and edge AI technologies into Medtronic’s GI Genius™ intelligent endoscopy module, developed and manufactured by Cosmo Pharmaceuticals. GI Genius is the first FDA-cleared, AI-assisted colonoscopy tool to help physicians detect polyps that can lead to colorectal cancer.
GI Genius has been designed to host a suite of AI algorithms and integrating the NVIDIA Clara™ healthcare platform could allow Medtronic to scale development of algorithms for real-time procedures, potentially accelerating AI innovation for better patient care.
