Open to everyone until Tuesday, September 29

To keep it, print it while it is open.

AI can look at medical scans and health data. It can spot small signs of disease earlier, helping doctors start treatment sooner.

In the picture

  1. A bright circle on the chest scan: a small area highlighted for a closer look
  2. A large screen: displays a chest scan in gray tones
  3. A tablet: displays a simple line graph with a few dots
  4. A stethoscope: lies beside the tablet on the desk

Examples

  • A phone app that checks a photo of a mole and suggests whether a doctor should see it
  • A smart watch that notices an unusual heart rhythm and tells you to get it checked
