DrAid™ x Ferrum with mission of helping 7M patients

Ferrum Health, the industry leader in enterprise AI solutions for global health systems, announces that VinBrain’s DrAid™ Teleradiology solution is immediately available on the Ferrum AI Hub platform. DrAid leverages AI in radiology to support healthcare professionals in detecting abnormalities on chest x-rays.

Preventable medical errors affect up to 7 million patients and cost over $20 billion annually, but the cost is more than just financial. Medical errors compromise patient care and can lead to poor patient outcomes and even death. 

Errors of omission, or diagnostic errors, are a significant challenge in today’s healthcare environment. Staffing shortages, fatigue, time pressures, and clinical skill level can all play a role. A recent European study highlights that of the 1 billion imaging exams completed worldwide each year, at least 40 million include errors.

With the addition of DrAid, Ferrum’s AI platform expands the clinical tools available to health systems, enabling AI support across the patient journey. DrAid detects abnormalities on chest x-rays, adding a second read for lung nodules and pneumothorax.

We look forward to our long-term partnership on this journey to solve humanity’s problems together,” said Steven Quoc Hung Truong, VinBrain CEO. “With each VinBrain product, we aim to help people and improve their quality of life through digital health with AI at the core.”
