NEW YORK, Aug. 1, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Montefiore Nyack Hospital, a leading acute care hospital located in Rockland County, NY, announced today that it is utilizing Artificial Intelligence software to assist in identifying urgent life-threatening conditions on patient CT scans. The solution from AI medical pioneer Aidoc automatically prioritizes critical medical conditions, ensuring patients are diagnosed and treated faster.

“Incorporating artificial intelligence into our workflow process enables our physicians to expedite care for our most critical patients,” said Evan Kaminer, MD, Director of Radiology and President of the Medical Staff at Montefiore Nyack Hospital. “The integration of Aidoc was fast and seamless, and the results were witnessed almost immediately.
