Leipzig University Hospital & Saventic Health launch cooperation to diagnose rare diseases using artificial intelligence
Leipzig University Hospital and medtech start-up Saventic Health are delighted to announce the immediate launch of their ground-breaking partnership. The collaboration will support doctors and medical staff in detecting rare diseases faster with the help of state-of-the-art AI algorithms.
01/10/2023
The start-up and Medical Forge participant Saventic Health specialises in programming artificial intelligence in the medical field. Their technically innovative, AI-powered platform Saventic Med will be implemented in the hospital's internal systems to help doctors at Leipzig University Hospital to diagnose rare diseases at an early stage. Both parties are looking forward to the results and the potential benefits that this collaboration will bring to the medical care of affected patients.
„We recognise the immense potential of the application of artificial intelligence in the medical field. This technology can help our doctors to detect diseases even earlier and optimise treatment. We are looking forward to the project with great anticipation, as we are firmly convinced that it can help to improve healthcare for patients," explained Cornelia Naumann, who is a member of the commercial management board at Leipzig University Hospital.
Szymon Piątkowski, CEO, and Maciej Klein, Managing Director of Saventic Health, are also optimistic about the collaboration and are certain that the expertise of Leipzig University Hospital provides the ideal basis for developing advanced AI-supported diagnostic solutions.
