17.07.2020 AFFIDEA PRESENTS AT ECR 2020 ITS FRAMEWORK ON AI IMPLEMENTATION IN A HEALTHCARE ENVIRONMENT SHARE WITH July 17th 2020, Amsterdam: Affidea, the leading European provider of diagnostic imaging, outpatient and cancer care services, is pleased to participate this year at the European Congress of Radiology (ECR) with two presentations and six clinical digital posters for EPOS (the European Society of Radiology's online database for electronic scientific exhibits). In support of the company's digital health transformation initiatives to improve patient care, Affidea will present at this year's ECR a standardised framework for the practical implementation of artificial intelligence solutions in a multi-country healthcare organisation. The research was based on Affidea's innovative clinical initiatives in the field of Artificial Intelligence, through the pilot deployment of four AI solutions initiated in 2019 with the aim to integrate them in the clinical workflow to improve patients care, defining measurable performance indicators and tracking in real-time the benefits for all stakeholders: patients, doctors, PHIs and national health systems. Affidea's presentation at ECR will showcase a standardised framework to assess the added value of an AI solution from a clinical, technical and business point of view. ECR participants will be able to follow the presentation on Sunday, 18th July, during the Research Presentation Session, between 08:30-10:00 am. In addition to this research presentation and in line with the company's commitment to provide the education and necessary learning for world-class specialized medical care, Affidea's sessions at ECR include: EPOS Poster presentation "Affidea's Learning from Excellence system” - a digital application and database in 16 languages to promote excellence and best practices in a multinational healthcare environment, developed to jointly support learning, improve patient care and safety along with staff motivation.
