Digitalisation is a global megatrend, and Norway is a role model for the digital transformation of the healthcare sector. Its focus on developing and deploying cutting-edge solutions for diagnosis is driving progress in prevention and treatment, both in clinical settings and at home. The Norwegian health industry has some distinct advantages, including world-leading AI and [...]
A credit card-sized tuberculosis test that works without electricity has shown 87 per cent accuracy in detecting TB among people living with HIV. The portable device addresses a long-standing diagnostic gap, as standard tests often miss TB in individuals whose weakened immune systems make the infection harder to detect. Traditional TB tests rely on immune [...]
An artificial intelligence system has outperformed doctors in diagnosing complex health conditions, achieving over 80 per cent accuracy compared to 20 per cent for clinicians working alone. The system uses a so-called “diagnostic orchestrator” – a bespoke agent-like tool designed to replicate how a panel of expert physicians might collaborate to solve difficult cases. In [...]
Stockholm-based biotech firm Epigenica has raised €1.8m to support the development and commercialisation of its gene expression screening technology. The company develops tools to study epigenetics – how environmental and lifestyle factors influence gene activity without altering the DNA sequence – for use in research, diagnostics and drug development. The new investment will also support [...]
How recursive reasoning could enhance patient safety By Lars Maaløe, Co-Founder and CTO, Corti Healthcare AI is at a tipping point. Ambient scribes and virtual assistants were meant to lighten documentation burdens, giving clinicians more time for patients. Instead, new layers of administrative complexity have emerged, leaving clinicians to correct AI outputs, manage new risks, [...]
GP practices in England can now adopt the first new core electronic patient record system since 1999, marking a major shift in the technology available to general practice. Medicus Health’s cloud-based platform is the first system to be fully approved through NHS England’s Tech Innovation Framework. It breaks a 25-year period in which most practices [...]
Berry Fertility has launched Smart Compose, an AI-powered tool designed to help fertility clinic staff draft responses to patient messages while keeping clinicians in control of decision-making. The tool aims to reduce the administrative burden on healthcare professionals by integrating with electronic medical records (EMRs). It pulls relevant chart data, reviews patient queries and message [...]
JEB Technologies and Medovate, two medical device development and commercialisation companies based in East Anglia, have signed a distribution agreement with Murray Medical Solutions Pty Ltd, granting them rights to distribute CamPROBE (The Cambridge Prostate Biopsy Device) across Australia and New Zealand. Professor Vincent Gnanapragasam, a leading urology expert, along with his team at the [...]
A short video session with a therapy dog can significantly reduce stress levels, according to new research comparing virtual interventions with in-person interactions. The study found that five-minute pre-recorded sessions featuring therapy dogs helped ease stress among both students and members of the public, highlighting the value of virtual alternatives for people unable to access [...]
An Exeter-based biotech company has partnered with L'Oréal to explore new ways of reversing the ageing process at the cellular level. SENISCA, a spinout from the University of Exeter, will collaborate with L'Oréal under a newly announced research agreement targeting senescent cells — older cells that no longer function properly but remain active in the [...]
