◇ AIDOT – Cervical cancer AI solution

AIDOT, a specialized medical ICT company, is focusing on introducing its cervical cancer AI solution.

AIDOT’s Cerviray A.I. solution developed a proprietary algorithm by collecting a large volume of cervical cancer DB data.

With an accuracy of 93%, the solution can deliver results nearly comparable to a specialist’s interpretation. It also enables remote care, making it possible to transmit images and receive a specialist’s diagnosis online.

An AIDOT official said, “Medical infrastructure and personnel are currently concentrated in developed countries, while developing countries are severely lacking,” adding, “We hope that a remote care system will enable more screenings to take place.”

Softwave 2020 is being held through the 4th across the entire Hall B at COEX in Samseong-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, with thorough COVID-19 prevention and safety measures in place. Admission is free.
