Odesa has become the first Ukrainian city to launch a pilot telemedicine project called BrainScan.

This was reported by the Ministry of Health.

This system, based on artificial intelligence, significantly speeds up the process of diagnosing brain diseases or injuries when time is a critical factor. The neural network analyzes computer tomography images automatically and detects pathological changes. Within just 5 minutes after image processing, a doctor can make decisions about further treatment.

“This speeds up the process several times! The use of artificial intelligence for the analysis of CT scans of the brain within the project has shown promising results. The experience in Odesa of involving neural networks in patient diagnostics is now also being used in the front-line city of Kramatorsk in Donetsk region”, the statement says.
