Google and Apollo Team Up: AI Helps Find Diseases Early in India.

Google and Apollo Radiology International are working together to use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to find diseases early in India. They want to make these new tools available to everyone in the country to help with big health problems.

AI is making a big difference in medicine, especially in finding diseases early. Google’s AI technology will be used by Apollo Radiology to focus on finding three common diseases: tuberculosis (TB), lung cancer, and breast cancer. Finding these diseases early is very important for treating them successfully.

This partnership is trying to solve a big problem in India’s healthcare system: not enough doctors who can read X-rays well, especially for finding TB. AI can look at X-rays quickly and accurately to find signs of TB faster.

But this partnership isn’t just about finding diseases. Apollo Radiology has promised to offer free screenings for these diseases for the next ten years, using Google’s AI technology. This free service could help millions of people in India get diagnosed early and get better treatment.

The teamwork between Google and Apollo is a big step forward in using AI to make healthcare easier to get in India. By focusing on finding diseases early and screening many people, this project could save a lot of lives.
