Inspiration
We we inspired to build Exstrahlen because of the long wait times in hospitals. From the personal experience of one of our teammates, who recently underwent a surgery, long hospital waiting times have become standard, and we're trying to change that.
What it does
Our whole idea was to have an idea that indirectly improves wait time. We found that scans take a lot of time to analyze and must be done thousands of times per day. Thus, we wanted to answer the following questions. How can we make the work of radiologists faster, and how do we improve the wait times for patients?
Utilizing our algorithm lets radiologists immediately jump to key patterns in a scan, saving them 30 seconds to a minute. That kind of efficiency gain is massive when multiplied over the 5000 scans that a radiologist may see each day. Improving this turnaround time means that patients can receive the care they need more quickly and can improve the quality of treatment
