Michał Szemień, Head of the Emergency Department at the Poznan Regional Hospital, Poland

I have the pleasure of using the BrainScan A.I. system for over six months now. The software analyzes all CT scans performed in the emergency department; this can be up to a few dozen daily. We are the busiest emergency department in Greater Poland.

We've noticed during this time, thanks to the tool, a significant reduction in the length of patient stays in the emergency department and the times from CT scan to consultation and then onward transfer of patients to surgical wards - and I'm talking about the group of patients with intracranial hemorrhages. Regardless of their cause and type, we have a whole range of trauma patients with epidural and subdural hematomas; and the full spectrum of spontaneous, subarachnoid or intracerebral hemorrhages. The software tool is designed to operate so that after ordering and performing a CT head scan, the ER doctor will receive a notification if the system detects pathology in the form of bleeding. Without waiting for a radiologist's description, or an independent assessment of the results, the doctor can consult and transfer the patient to a neurosurgeon.

For example - a few days ago, a woman aged 40-50 arrived at our ER department complaining of a headache. Immediately a CT scan of the head was performed. The BrainScan software found a difficult-to-detect subarachnoid hemorrhage close to the skull. It allowed us to rapidly transfer the patient to the neurosurgical ward for immediate brain surgery, saving the patient's life!
