Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], March 18: AI use in medicine to make early diagnosis and predict cancer is new scientific advancement and we are the first India to start about use this technology in collaboration with world famous institutes like MIT, Mayo clinic, The Netherlands and others.

Continental Hospitals clinical quality, outcomes and superior standards and several national and international accreditations were recognized by these institutes and hence decided to collaborate with their AI technologies with the hospital.

Dr Guru N Reddy Founder and Chairman said last year we established for the first time in India " Continental Centre for Early detection of Cancer and treatment " and this year establishing "Artificial intelligence "in imaging for very early cancer diagnosis of Breast cancers, Lung cancers and Pancreatic cancers. He said with AI we are able to detect or classify patients as high risk for cancers almost 5 years ahead in some of them. This is a game changer in medicine for the first time about will help save thousands of people from cancer from early detection.

Having latest technologies at Continental Hospitals, Our radiologists have been trained along with our IT staff in implementing the AI integration and already over 1500 patients have used these AI based imaging exams for cancers.
