Google tests AMIE for clinical video consultations

Google’s research medical AI system, AMIE (Video), conducted synchronous video consultations with professional patient actors and received clinical evaluator ratings on par with primary care physicians across several core measures. Fifteen trained actors portrayed conditions across cardiopulmonary, abdominal, HEENT, neurological or psychiatric, and musculoskeletal presentations. Google says studies involving real patients and their own health […]

Why health AI interfaces must adapt to user expertise

MIT researchers and collaborators found that AI explainability tools in the health sector can produce sharply different results depending on who uses them. When applied to skin disease diagnosis, non-experts improved their accuracy with AI assistance, although the improvement largely came from deferring to the model. Primary care providers showed a different pattern: they performed

PRISM2 model uses clinical dialogue to interpret pathology slides

Built by Paige and Microsoft, PRISM2 reads whole-slide images through a perceiver-based encoder trained jointly on tissue tiles and clinical dialogue drawn from pathology reports. The model aggregates thousands of tile embeddings per slide into one representation, then generates text that answers diagnostic questions rather than simply classifying pixels.  Training data spans 2.3 million whole-slide

Guardoc Health processes clinical documentation using Amazon Nova models

Guardoc Health says it processes over one million clinical documents daily using Amazon Nova models through Bedrock. Bringing AI into clinical documentation comes down to a specific kind of risk calculation. Get it wrong and the errors compound into denied Medicare claims under the Patient-Driven Payment Model, audit fines, litigation exposure, and in the worst

Nvidia bets physical AI can solve healthcare robotics’ data problem

Nvidia’s new Medical Physics Simulation framework treats healthcare robots as physical AI systems that need embodied experience to learn, not just code. Physical AI is the term Nvidia and much of the robotics industry now use to describe machines that have to learn how the world behaves through contact, force, and consequence, rather than through

Bunkerhill raises $55M to scale agentic AI across health systems

Bunkerhill Health has raised $55 million to scale its agentic AI platform, Carebricks. The closing of the company’s Series B round, announced today, folds in continued participation from Sequoia Capital, Felicis, Optum Ventures, and Y Combinator. However, a funding total doesn’t answer the key question any hospital executive wants to know about healthcare AI: does

Examining Google DeepMind’s AI bioresilience push

Google DeepMind and Isomorphic Labs outlined a bioresilience program to curb AI misuse in biology while aiding outbreak response. The two organisations published an update on a joint initiative that began quietly and has now built out more than 15 partnerships with government bodies, biosecurity organisations, and research groups over the past 12 months. The

Your doctor’s AI notetaker may be making things up, Ontario audit finds

In recent years, many overworked doctors have turned to so-called AI medical scribes to help automatically summarize patient conversations, diagnoses, and care decisions into structured notes for health record logging. But a recent audit by the auditor general of Ontario found that AI scribes recommended by the provincial government regularly generated incorrect, incomplete and hallucinated

Gates Foundation and OpenAI test AI in African healthcare

Primary healthcare systems across parts of Africa are under growing strain, caught between rising demand, chronic staff shortages, and shrinking international aid budgets. In that context, AI is being tested in healthcare less as a breakthrough technology and more as a way to keep basic services running. According to reporting by Reuters, the Gates Foundation
