Title
AI algorithms for Chest Xray screening

Summary
Biocliq Technologies is engaged in research and development work towards protecting more people in developing nations against cancer by early detection. Th aim of the project is to create a machine learning based screening system that's deployable in low resource nations and facilitate mass screening exercises by healthcare providers. considering the lack of radiologists and radiology resources in these countries, it will be great to have such a system democratically available to all providers. Towards this, we will need robust data sets to train our models.

Aims

The aim of the project is to expand the existing screening and treatment methods for cancer in India and other south Asian countries. We will be collaborating with leading institutions in these geographies to help them with machine learning tools to the medical community.
