AI addresses challenges in aneurysm analysis

Customer

Established in 1964, Macquarie University began as a bold experiment in higher education and a break from traditions, aiming to be distinctive, progressive and transformational. Today, its pioneering history continues to be a source of inspiration as it leads the way in ground-breaking discoveries. Its academics are at the forefront of innovation and, as accomplished researchers, are embracing the opportunity to tackle the big issues of our time.

Challenge

Enable faster, more accurate analysis of CT scans to make the treatment of brain aneurysms more successful.

Solution

Fujitsu is designing an AI algorithm in collaboration with radiologists to detect brain aneurysms

Outcomes

  • It could dramatically reduce the time it takes to review each scan, which currently takes up to 15 minutes
  • Radiologists and patients can have more confidence that aneurysms have been found and can be tracked successfully 
  • Accompanying 3D structural analysis data may help neurosurgeons make smarter decisions 
  • Fluid dynamics would assist in planning surgical interventions
