"InferScholar will enable Sanford Health caregivers to harness the power of AI as it relates to imaging-based diagnostics," said John Miller, M.D., a radiologist at Sanford Health. "InferScholar was designed with the radiologist in mind with easy-to-use tools and functionality for annotating. The data does not leave Sanford's possession, and that's important. We can still train the AI model in a federated learning type setup, which can be accomplished with InferScholar. Infervision will then utilize our clinical input to create the product."
