MedKairos views this as the first step of marrying medicine and machine for the betterment of the care that we can provide for our patients.
According to Michael Moore, the CEO of MedKairos, “Pathology is the cornerstone of diagnostics. Efforts to replace this critical position in the hospital with an automated system would destabilize current workflows, and no hospital is willing to take on that level of risk.” By taking an incremental approach to clinical acceptance, MedKairos has positioned themselves as the leader in the new age of machine learning in pathology. They have plans to maintain their advantage through a scheduled rollout of additional software to expand the utility of their platform to other tissue collection methods, and plan to incorporate benign biopsy triage to further address the needs of pathologists.
Considering the revolutionary technologies being developed, such as those by MedKairos, it is not a stretch to imagine the implications of integrating this data with that collected from radiology artificial intelligence, health care blockchains, and home health tracking. This style of holistic integration would lead to diagnostic decision making in a way not dissimilar to the current teachings of medical school curricula. By taking the physician partnership approach, these desperately needed technologies will be able to enhance the speed and quality of clinical decision-making and identify previously unseen patterns in patient populations, while never sacrificing the humanistic side of medicine. The leaders who will bring these technologies into the space of practicing medicine remain to be seen, but companies like MedKairos already have one foot in the door to the future of computer-enhanced medical care for patients across the globe.
