Is the combination of microscope and artificial intelligence the trend of intelligent microscope?
Artificial intelligence entered the micro world and began in the medical field Tencent Artificial Intelligence Laboratory announced that an artificial intelligence microscope that can be applied to the field of case analysis is in the development and testing stage. This new technology integrates artificial intelligence and microscope,
It can help doctors easily realize automatic identification, detection, quantitative calculation and report generation.
A few days ago, Tencent Artificial Intelligence Laboratory announced that an artificial intelligence microscope that can be applied to the field of case analysis is in the development and testing stage. This new technology integrates artificial intelligence and microscope,
It can help doctors easily realize automatic identification, detection, quantitative calculation and report generation.
One is one of the greatest inventions of mankind in the 20th century, and the other is the technological science leading the times in the 21st century. What surprises will the combination of microscope and artificial intelligence bring to mankind?
Help doctors quickly capture information
In China, artificial intelligence entered the micro world and began in the medical field. In November 2017, mcaudi, a Chinese optical microscope manufacturer, announced the launch of an AI microscope for malaria detection in cooperation with the global good foundation.
This product is driven by artificial intelligence technology and uses custom image recognition software to identify and count malaria parasites in blood samples within 20 minutes.
Dr. Ma Jiantao, an expert in artificial intelligence and plant phenotype research at China Agricultural University, introduced that AI microscope is not a specific technology in essence, but a set of technology integration, and this integration has different components in different fields,
"To put it simply, AI microscope is to achieve deep learning of images through technical means to obtain artificial intelligence reports. Image acquisition depends on the microscope, and deep learning comes from computer programming of artificial intelligence.".
The reporter learned that Tencent has reached cooperation with more than 100 domestic top three hospitals. The AI medical image screening field has expanded from esophageal cancer to pulmonary nodules, diabetes retinopathy, breast cancer, etc. As of last month, AI microscope has accumulated assistance
Doctors read more than 100 million medical images, served more than one million patients, and suggested 150000 high-risk lesions.
"At present, China needs about 120000 pathologists every year, but less than 20000 pathologists have been trained. Digitizing pathological sections and using AI algorithms to assist in analysis will help alleviate the shortage of pathologists, which is also the future trend of AI + medicine.
”According to the staff of Tencent AI lab.
Mature application needs technological breakthrough
"The maturity of medical technology, especially imaging technology, has provided a prerequisite for AI microscopes to display their skills in the medical field. This is a gratifying beginning." Ma Xiaotao told the science and technology daily, "in fact, this is only the AI microscope widely used in the society
It will be the first step in the development of various fields. In the future, AI microscope will have a blowout development and application process. "
In the prediction of new technologies in the next five years released by IBM at the beginning of this year, AI microscope is one of them. At present, the IBM R & D team has begun to develop an AI microscope for collecting and analyzing ocean data. "The mature application of AI microscope requires multidisciplinary
The technology integration in various fields and the technology development in various fields are becoming more and more mature. The bottleneck lies not in a certain field, but in targeted field applications. For example, the application in the industrial field and the medical field requires different technical means and ideas, and
AI microscopes are widely used in the agricultural field, and there will be new challenges. " Ma said.
The reporter learned that the research team of China Agricultural University has started the basic research on the application of AI microscope in agricultural production. The urgent demand for AI microscope in scientific research and modern production can be seen. Ma Xiaotao said: "the development of AI microscope
The requirements of exhibition application for micro imaging technology are only the foundation. In the future, it will put forward newer and higher requirements for core technologies in various application fields. "
