Herefordshire AI software helping stroke patients

Available for over a year

A new piece of Artificial Intelligence software is being used to help people who've had a stroke in Herefordshire. Analysing brain scan images, the A-I will help doctors more quickly decide whether a stroke patient needs an operation or drugs to remove a blood clot. The Wye Valley NHS Trust is the first in the West Midlands to roll out the software.
