Kakao Brain announced that it has signed a business agreement (MOU) with the Catholic Medical Center of the Catholic University of Korea to research ultra-large artificial intelligence (AI) models in the field of medical imaging.
Through joint research, Kakao Brain and the Catholic Medical Center are supporting the development of a ‘medical imaging service’ that applies a very large AI model learned from the largest amount of data in the medical imaging field, leading the advancement of the global healthcare market and further improving medical imaging. The plan is to accelerate the role of AI in the field.
Kakao Brain is responsible for ▲researching ultra-large AI models in the medical imaging field ▲providing research infrastructure necessary for data learning ▲providing professional research personnel and technical capabilities ▲clinical and licensing management for technology commercialization ▲overall commercialization of medical imaging services. The medical center is responsible for ▲cooperation for research on ultra-large AI models in the medical imaging field, ▲medical advice and academic exchanges, and ▲support for pipeline discovery in the medical imaging field.
Through this agreement, we will expand the research field from initial chest We plan to do it.
Kim Il-du, CEO of Kakao Brain, said, “We are happy to participate in research to provide high-quality medical imaging services with the Catholic Medical Center by utilizing Kakao Brain’s innovative and ultra-large AI technology capabilities.” He added, “We will continue to use Kakao Brain’s unrivaled technological capabilities.” “We will expand our application and expand our research business,” he said.
Kim Dae-jin, director of the Catholic University Information Convergence Promotion Institute, an organization that aims to safely and smoothly use medical data from the Catholic Medical Center, said, “We will develop advanced medical imaging services by combining the cutting-edge medical infrastructure of the Catholic Medical Center with Kakao Brain’s technology.” “We will be able to do this,” he said. “Through cooperation with Kakao Brain, we will lead the way in supporting medical imaging services using AI technology.”
Meanwhile, as AI technology becomes more sophisticated, the need to introduce AI technology to analyze massive amounts of medical image data is also emerging in the domestic healthcare market. In particular, it is attracting attention as it maximizes the efficiency of medical image reading tasks by assisting professional medical staff through ultra-large AI technology and enables more accurate diagnosis.
