Baptist Health is the first health care organization in Arkansas to utilize icometrix’s AI technology to improve neuroradiology services.
Through this collaboration, icobrain, icometrix’s advanced AI software, will be introduced at all Baptist Health imaging locations across Arkansas, starting in North Little Rock.
The icobrain software uses artificial intelligence to analyze brain MRI scans. This helps radiologists and neurologists detect and monitor neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis, dementia, and traumatic brain injury more quickly and accurately.
icobrain uses artificial intelligence to assess brain volumes, abnormalities, and subtle brain volume changes over time. It aligns the brain scan with a reference atlas, and segments multiple brain structures to measure volumes, abnormalities, and subtle changes over time. Tailored to a patient’s condition, brain volumes are measured and normalized for age, sex, and head size before comparing it to a normal reference database.
The technology offers more personalized treatment plans and quicker diagnoses, allowing for earlier interventions when they matter most.
“By adopting icobrain, Baptist Health is committed to ensuring patients receive the highest level of quality, compassionate care,” said Jessica Rivera, FACHE, vice president of operations at Baptist Health Medical Center-North Little Rock. “The healing ministry remains committed to embracing innovation in healthcare while maintaining the trust and comfort of our patients.”
