What is conversational AI?
Conversational AI refers to technologies that enable computers to understand, process, and respond to human language in a way that is contextually relevant and interactive. It goes beyond simple rule-based chatbots by incorporating advanced natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning techniques to engage in more human-like interactions.

What is remote monitoring?
Remote monitoring provides the ability for patients to share physiological or other data with their care teams from home or other locations outside of a traditional in-person clinical encounter.

A buyer's guide to remote monitoring

Digital therapeutics, also called DTx, is a digital capability that exists within the broader category of digital medicine. DTx solutions are evidence-based, clinically validated and scalable software applications used to treat, manage, and/or prevent a variety of diseases and disorders in order to improve health outcomes and reduce costs. In addition, solutions are provider-prescribed, include privacy and security protections, and have received approval from the appropriate regulatory bodies.

A Buyer’s Guide to Digital Therapeutics

Available digital healthcare solutions are evolving and improving rapidly, transforming how healthcare organizations meet patients’ needs. Few healthcare facilities have stood to benefit from the rise of telehealth technology as much as rural hospitals, which often serve as the primary source of outpatient services for underserved local communities.  But recently, rural hospitals have struggled to sustain the high levels of outpatient care they typically provide. Additionally, hospitals in rural areas rank last when it comes to telehealth adoption, which has left them poorly prepared to take part in the shift to virtual-first care and put their financial health at risk. According to a recent McKinsey report, that will soon change, as rural hospitals increasingly turn to remote patient monitoring solutions to provide better, more accessible primary care and improve coordination with regionally scarce specialists. To do so, they’ll need to choose the right platform for their use case.

ImmersiveTouch® provides cutting-edge AR/VR surgical technology and training solutions to medical professionals and the healthcare industry. Founded in 2005, ImmersiveTouch combines innovative R&D and strong academic partnerships to promote world-class medical education and patient safety. Their company’s comprehensive education solutions include next generation surgical simulators and learning management systems. These can be found in leading medical centers around the world, including Johns Hopkins, the University of Calgary, and the University of Chicago.  Their simulators immerse surgeons in a 3D operating environment where they can practice complicated procedures on their patients by loading CT/MRI scans of the patient into the simulator. ImmersiveTouch’s patented haptic technology allows resident students to touch and feel the 3D anatomy, which allows students to perfect their surgical skills. ImmersiveTouch’s mission is to provide surgeons with patient specific medical solutions, provide educators with training solutions, and continually advance haptic technology.

ImmersiveView™ VR converts CT, CBCT, 3D angiography and MRI scans into a 'digital twin' of the patient and provides a completely unique and unobstructed view of the case in virtual reality.  No longer limited to certain angles of view, doctors can easily view the target anatomy, clearly and accurately, just as it exists in reality. Physicians handle the scan as if it were a physical object in the palm of their hand, observing from every angle to get the very best understanding of the situation, even flying into the anatomy to take a closer look. ImmersiveView™ VR provides unprecedented clarity in patient scans and is simple and intuitive to use. The platform is ideal for viewing critical scan information in all areas of the hospital: Radiology labs, ORs, ERs, and doctors’ offices.
