Radboud University Medical Center (RUMC) is joining forces with ScreenPoint Medical and Thirona to develop generic AI software for the early diagnosis of breast and lung cancer. The software is designed to be used autonomously, improving and accelerating image interpretation without compromising transparency and control (the physician remains the decision-maker). This initiative addresses the growing pressure on physicians to assess complex patient data quickly, a task made more difficult by the fact that image interpretation especially for early-stage cancer often error-prone and labour intensive.
Thirona’s primary objective is to automate bronchoscope route planning to assist physicians in both biopsy preparation and live navigation. This is achieved through the following process:
