woolly mammoth tusk CT

Prior attempts at imaging large fossils such as mammoth tusks failed to capture the full artifact with just one scan, instead requiring multiple partial scans that were subsequently pieced together.

“Although regularly assessing and updating these models is necessary to ensure accurate performance, there is no standard approach to addressing model drift.” 

Example of an artificial intelligence (AI) app store on the Sectra website, where Sectra PACS users can select the AI algorithms they want that are already integrated into the Sectra System. Other vendors have followed a similar approach to AI developed by many smaller vendors they partner with.
