New restaurant for city Tech bid to help radiology services
A NEW restaurant will be taking over the former Handmade Burger Company premises in Glasgow city centre.
Mowgli Street Food, which offers fresh home cooking-style Indian food, has taken over the three-level unit at 78 St Vincent Street.
Mowgli was founded by curry evangelist and food writer Nisha Katona.
It specialises in small street food items as well as larger curry dishes, including Goan fish curry, gunpowder chicken and Himalayan cheese toast, with dedicated gluten-free and vegan menus.
Real estate advisor CBRE secured the restaurant occupier for the unit.
ARTIFICIAL intelligence is being used to transform radiology services in Greater Glasgow.
A team of experts has trained computer programmes to assess X-rays and report f there are any abnormalities.
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (NHS GGC) chiefs are carrying out the project with the support of the West of Scotland Innovation Hub and iCAIRD, the Industrial Centre for Artifical Intelligence Research in Digital Diagnostics.
“We’ve seen already that globally artificial intelligence in radiology can reduce wait times for patients, improve accuracy, and reduce pressure on staff,” Dr Mark Hall, radiology consultant, atNHS GGC said.
“There is a misconception by the public that using artificial intelligence in healthcare means there is less contact with doctors – the opposite is true.
“Using machines to speed up some of our simpler work means there is more time for direct patient care and the complex cases.”
The first stage of the project with NHSGGC’s radiology services saw radiologists effectively teaching the artificial intelligence which x-rays are abnormal and which ones are healthy.
Early results found by NHSGGC and industrial partner Bering show the tool is 98% accurate.
Dr David Lowe, joint clinical lead, West of Scotland Innovation Hub, said: “This project has shown the importance of collaboration between clinicians, industry and our partners. We have utilised the expertise of NHS clinicians.”
