Quantum Thought Using Quantum Algorithms to Revolutionize Medical Imaging

Have you ever had a CT scan done on you? Even if you haven't, you've probably seen pictures or videos of this futuristic-looking machine that performs a 360-degree scan of your body.



When a radiologist performs a CT scan to detect an anomaly in your body, he or she needs to manually go through a stack of image slices, where each image slice is taken at a different angle with respect to the body. Imagine how tedious a process this is! Even the most experienced radiologists can take valuable time and make mistakes.


Could we automate this process? Can a program automatically synthesize all these images and flag locations at which an anomaly is detected, so radiologists can focus on the specifics of the diagnosis and treatment? We at Quantum Thought think so.

We are using AI and machine learning techniques to make the radiologist's job easier and auto-detect breaks and fractures in bones. We're also incorporating quantum computing-based algorithmic techniques to provide a significant speedup in anomaly identification. We're excited to harness the power of quantum computing to revolutionize the medical imaging and analysis process for doctors everywhere.
