There is an ambulance in the United States that is a "mobile stroke ambulance unit" that is designed for people who have a stroke. NeuroLogica, a medical imaging company owned by Samsung, teamed up with Israel's artificial intelligence company MedyMatch to jointly create an artificial intelligence platform and Samsung CereTom CT scanner for the ambulance unit, allowing rescuers to use this mobile scanning tool. It will soon be known whether the patient is cerebral hemorrhage or a thrombus.
At the launch of Samsung NeuroLogica and MedyMatch, Peter Rasmussen, medical director of the Cleveland Clinic's Telemedicine Program, said that it is important to have a scanning instrument that can quickly identify if there is a cerebral hemorrhage, because in this scenario, the direction of treatment is decided. Must race against time.
At the beginning of March 2017, MedyMatch has partnered with IBM Watson Medical to bring cerebral hemorrhage diagnostics to a larger market. Both are combining this application with IBM Watson's imaging business.
This integration of MedyMatch and Samsung NeroLogica is just the beginning of the "Roadside AI" project. This project aims to apply a fusion of machine learning and mobile medical technology to all emergency situations.

"We are standing on a new threshold for medical imaging," said MedyMatch's CEO at the press conference. He said that the development of medical imaging has been focused on clear imaging, more portable devices, etc., MedyMatch's artificial intelligence application will help this trend forward, so that CT and other imaging instruments not only provide images, but also provide medical solutions. .
Many studies have shown that rescue in the first few hours of symptoms of stroke can save lives and reduce the impact of the disease. Therefore, many medical service providers are experimenting with the “Mobile Stroke Ambulance Unit†because it has moved the designated medical care service from the hospital to the location where the patient is located.
In 2015, the Cleveland Clinic and Cleveland Emergency Medical Services conducted a study that found that a service such as a mobile stroke ambulance unit would allow patients to receive a CT scan at least 5 minutes earlier and a thromboablation medication 26 minutes earlier.
