The edge AI deployment scaled to 11 facilities serving over 3 million patients without new servers, and a related cardiac MRI application processes images 5.5 times faster with near-real-time analysis and no accuracy loss.","company":"Siemens Healthineers","industry":"Healthcare","aiCapabilities":["Computer Vision"],"technology":["AI-Rad Companion","Intel CPUs"],"deployment":"On-Premise","problemStatement":"Treatment planning traditionally required dosimetrists to manually contour cancerous tumors and surrounding healthy tissues on medical images, a painstaking process that could take hours or days and delayed the start of radiation therapy for patients.","solutionApproach":"Through collaboration with Intel, Siemens Healthineers deployed AI-Rad Companion to automate the image segmentation process, running at the edge on Siemens' imaging systems optimized by Intel processors so it delivers near-instant results without transmitting sensitive data off-site, reusing existing infrastructure rather than requiring new servers.","evidence":{"band":"high"},"sourceUrl":"https://dimesociety.org/newsroom/blog/deep-dive/ai-at-the-edge-how-intel-and-siemens-healthineers-are-redefining-ai-deployment-in-healthcare/","dates":{"publishedAt":"2026-10-07T05:46:33.812Z","publishedAtSource":"pipeline","updatedAt":"2026-10-07T05:46:33.812Z"},"license":"Open for reading and citing with a link to https://findausecase.com/use-cases/siemens-healthineers-and-intel-deploy-edge-ai-for-radiation-therapy-planning-and-cardiac-mri.
