L’outil d’IA de la Dre Kafaie aide à concevoir les plans de radiothérapie plus efficacement. Il faut un leadership fédéral pour déployer ce type d’innovation à l’échelle du système.

Plaçons les soins de santé au sommet de l’agenda canadien en matière d’IA.

Sunnybrook trial using focused ultrasound plus chemo is helping people with glioblastoma live longer. Canada needs strong clinical trials platforms so breakthroughs like this become standard care in every region.

Focused ultrasound combined with chemotherapy prolongs survival for people with deadly brain cancer
Ten years after Toronto researchers used a novel technique to non-invasively open the blood-brain barrier for the first time, the results of a new multi-site clinical trial show the technique’s success not only in aiding medication to the brain of patients with glioblastoma, but also a 40 per cent increase in survival time.

Readiness is built, not assumed: preparing our health system for crisis
When we expand burn care, critical care capacity, or national co-ordination, we are also better equipped to respond to industrial or construction accidents, natural disasters, and future pandemics.
