Bangkok – True Business and Intel, a global technology leader, have jointly launched 7 cutting-edge solutions that will revolutionize Thailand’s medical services with AI technology.
- – Huawei Empowers Thailand’s Healthcare Summit
- – Korat Thailand Pioneering Health Link Integration for 67 Million Thais
This collaboration combines the power of the True 5G network with Intel’s AI technology to develop solutions covering all aspects of healthcare, from diagnosis and treatment to rehabilitation and medical data management. These solutions will increase efficiency, reduce costs, and improve the accuracy of treatment. They will also help reduce the burden on medical personnel and increase access to medical services for people in remote areas.
Mr. Pichit Thanyodom, Managing Director of Corporate Business of True Corporation PLC., said “True Business is committed to using AI to enhance the capabilities of organizations, and this collaboration with Intel will enable us to develop solutions that meet the needs of Thai businesses and support the digital transformation.”
This collaboration focuses on integrating and driving the operation of intelligent healthcare solutions that cover diagnosis and treatment, rehabilitation, and medical data management to elevate the medical and public health industry in Thailand to the next level. It also supports the work of doctors and medical personnel in hospitals across the country, enabling them to deliver higher quality, more accurate, and faster medical services.
At the same time, patients across the country can access public health services more comprehensively and receive better treatment experiences and outcomes, leading to improved quality of life and sustainable health for Thai people.Furthermore, True Business and Intel aim to promote scientific research and increase the effectiveness of healthcare services based on the ethical, safe, and transparent use of AI.
Diagnosis and Treatment
- Telemedicine and Tele ICU: Remote medical services via the True 5G network that connect medical equipment installed in various locations to the main hospital system. A platform stores patient data and medical history,records all medical procedures such as diagnosis, treatment, doctor appointments, and surgeries, and displays information on a dashboard, allowing doctors to consult and treat patients in real-time from a distance. This increases access to medical services for people in remote areas across the country, enabling continuous healthcare and reducing the need to travel to hospitals.
- Future of Large Language Model (LLM): A platform for checking patient history and analyzing initial symptoms. Patients can enter personal information and symptoms, and the AI system will analyze the symptoms along with the latest medical information. It provides insights into the causes and treatment options for diseases or health problems, as well as the next steps in treatment. This helps patients receive faster treatment, reduces the steps and time required to see a doctor, and increases the efficiency of doctors and medical personnel.
- Pathology as a Service: A platform that uses tissue scanning technology to convert pathology images into digital format, which AI can analyze quickly. This speeds up the process of testing tissue and blood samples, enabling pathologists to work faster and increasing both efficiency and diagnostic accuracy. Early detection of diseases becomes easier, allowing patients to access treatment promptly. For example, AI-powered digital pathology can detect cancer within minutes, while traditional processes may take weeks. True Corporation’s cloud storage technology and secure network system enable hospitals across Thailand to smoothly adopt digital pathology services, enhancing diagnostic capabilities and reducing the cost per disease detection.
- Ophthalmology as a Service: A platform that provides services for ophthalmology analysis and screening, such as age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. It uses an AI-powered retinal camera and automated computer diagnosis, taking less than one minute for accurate analysis without the need for uncomfortable eye drops to dilate the pupils. Intel’s AI-enabled product suite enhances the ability to detect diseases such as diabetic retinopathy, bone density in osteoporosis, and pathology for breast and kidney cancer.
Rehabilitation and Care
- Digital Patient Twin (Patient Management as a Service – PMaaS): A solution for enhancing patient care efficiency and safety with contactless devices. Various patient data, such as body temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, sleep quality, and patient position on the bed, are sent to sensors installed on the ceiling above the patient’s bed.
The data is then transmitted to a central hub for collection and alerts when abnormalities are detected. This enables close, rapid, safe, and more efficient patient monitoring and care without the need to disturb the patient’s rest for regular measurements.
- Residential Care Management: A platform for elderly care that enables seniors or patients to receive close and continuous care from medical personnel. Edge IoT devices and sensors installed on wheelchairs, mobile phones, or tablets record data in digital format and transmit it in real-time via the True 5G network.
The data is collected on an AI-powered platform for analysis to understand behavior and health risks. It is also connected to the hospital system and can send immediate alerts when risks or abnormalities are detected.
Medical Data Management
- Transforming of PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System): A solution that will revolutionize the medical image or radiology image storage system through an AI platform and enable AI applications everywhere,even in remote areas. It connects to all types of cloud platforms, reducing limitations and complexities associated with IT infrastructure.
The collaboration between True Business and Intel marks a significant step in raising Thailand’s healthcare standards and driving the country towards becoming a medical hub in Southeast Asia.
*2 Real-World Use Cases
-
Tissue analysis for cancer diagnosis is 2,000 times faster than traditional methods: On average, pathologists take up to 2 weeks or longer to analyze tissues to detect various diseases, especially cancer. This is particularly true for hospitals in remote areas that lack specialists and medical equipment, leading to delays in treatment and increased risk of disease progression.
The Pathology as a Service solution utilizes an AI platform to analyze pathology images, saving analysis time by taking only 5 minutes and increasing the accuracy of research studies.
-
Patient or convalescent care with contactless devices increases patient care efficiency by 30%: Enhances the patient’s recovery experience through close monitoring and care without being disturbed during recovery. It eliminates the need for multiple medical devices attached to the body to track various parameters, allowing for comfortable movement.
At the same time, doctors and medical personnel can enhance their patient care capabilities through the Digital Patient Twin solution, which uses tools to measure various body parameters and detect potential emergencies in patients resting in bed.
