"Innovations such as this are critical for boosting the capabilities of healthcare ecosystem, and this partnership supports our bold ambition of eliminating cancer as a cause of death," Leon Wang, <keyword id="10393688" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="astrazeneca-evp-international-and-country">AstraZeneca EVP International and Country</keyword> President, China, said in a statement. The collaboration will also focus on overcoming barriers that limit access to diagnostic tools to support early lung cancer detection. The end goal of the partnership is to improve referral and diagnostic pathways for patients with possible lung cancers and increase lung cancer detection at an earlier stage - improving the patient journey and ultimately reducing lung cancer mortality rates around the world. "We are delighted to partner with AstraZeneca in the early detection of lung cancer using our AI solution for automated interpretation of chest X-rays," said Prashant Warier, CEO and Co-Founder, Qure.ai. According to the company, the software's ability to process analogue and digital chest X-rays in a minute can help physicians in incidental diagnoses of lung cancer by pointing out small lung nodules which could have been missed in a cursory review. The solution also detects several other types of abnormalities from chest X-rays that are linked to infection, injuries and chronic diseases, and flags these to the physician, potentially creating other diagnostic pathways.
