SUMMARY:5G in Health and Social Care - Webinar Series
DESCRIPTION:In 2020\, UK Healthcare spend accounted for 12.8% of GDP\, £269 billion. The NHS alone employs 1.6 million people\, treating millions of patients and supporting further millions of citizens in need of help and guidance. Significant injections of additional Government funding were required to help adapt service delivery models and meet increased demand for services related to the pandemic. \nAmid Covid-19\, the health and social care sectors have introduced new and innovative ways to operate safely and efficiently—yet new challenges have emerged related to treatment delays\, on-going infection risk and increased demand on services such as mental health and wellbeing. \n5G has the potential to support innovation in these areas and across the sectors as a whole: facilitating more efficient and effective ways of working. Globally\, developed economies share these challenges while emerging economies continuously face extremely challenging conditions and ongoing shortages of skilled workforce\, further enhanced by pandemic fallout. Health and Care service delivery has seen an acceleration towards community services (treatment and management away from hospitals)  meaning increased reliance on data and communication systems both in wireless tech and  wired connectivity formats. \n5G has great potential to replace and enhance such connectivity and much more besides. It may prove to be a key platform to underpin the innovation in  adjacent  technologies and in ‘best practice’\, which will become necessary to build sustainable health\, care (and increasingly wellbeing and preventative) service designs for the future. \nThis series of events will be of interest to anyone involved in contemporary health and care service design or delivery.

SUMMARY:Immerse UK x Imagination Virtual Production Series
DESCRIPTION:Between November 2021 and February 2022\, Immerse UK and Imagination will be joined by industry experts in a series of panel discussions and thought-leadership pieces exploring the impact of virtual production and real time content production\, each from a different perspective. \nJoin the organisers as they explore virtual production through three different lenses\, including; \nThe Future of Content\nThe benefits and impact of using a real time workflow to create content. \nThe Future of Live Experiences\nThe emerging advantages\, and challenges\, of using real time content for live experiences. \nDigital Transformation in real time\nExploring what is required to embrace realtime technologies and workflows into your organisation. \nAbout Virtual Production\nVirtual Production is more accurately described as real time content production; The process by which digital objects and environments are generated in real time using video games engines such as Unreal and Unity. The same technology that immerses you in living\, breathing\, photorealistic gaming worlds\, is now being used by filmmakers\, storytellers\, marketers and even product designers\, opening up limitless creative possibilities. \nAbout the Series\nThis series aims to demystify the technology and dig into the practical applications\, and structural\, business and cultural impact of this incredible new world\, which is and will continue to transform industries in much the same way that cloud computing and the Internet before it. \nHear from industry experts and thought leaders at the forefront of Virtual Production\, as they guide you through the latest techniques and possibilities in this exciting new space.

SUMMARY:AI Lab Skunkworks: Using AI to identify tissue growth from CT scans with George Eliot Hospital
DESCRIPTION:Join AI Lab Skunkworks to learn how they have been experimenting with using AI to identify tissue growth from CT scans with George Eliot Hospital. \nCT scans are used in the detection and understanding of disease. Radiologists currently manually compare two CT scans\, taken at different dates\, to see whether a patient’s disease has improved\, deteriorated or remained unchanged. \nThis 12-week project investigated the AI techniques that could be applied to the problem and sought to provide a proof of concept (a feasibility study) about whether it was possible to identify organs and growths\, report on any changes and highlight areas of concern to the radiologist. \nThe AI Lab Skunkworks works on demonstrating the potential of AI through proof-of-concepts and upskilling the workforce through a knowledge-sharing model. We help healthcare organisations apply AI to their problems through rapid\, agile\, iterative projects. By running an open call\, we help develop proof of concepts through a 12 week process usually helped by a supplier.  We’re excited to present the results of our last project. \nJoin us for this webinar to learn more: \n\nAbout whether AI could be used to identify features in a CT scan and automatically align images to provide radiologists with a quick\, trustworthy support tool that would improve early detection and diagnosis of growths and improve patient outcomes.\nLearn more about the current problem radiologists face\,\nThe AI technique the Roke team used.\nChallenges faced and lessons learned through this project.
