A working meeting was held on 15 July between the management of the St. Petersburg “Medical Center for Information and Analysis”and the management of the Kaluga company” Medical Screening Systems ” (Сelsus). An agreement was reached on testing and possibility of implementing artificial intelligence in the work of health care institutions in Saint Petersburg in the course of the talks.

There are 13 regions of the Russian Federation where have been launched pilot projects on the use of the service. It is also being used as part of a large-scale experiment of Moscow City Health Department to introduce AI services into the work of departments of radiation diagnostics.
— “MSS” products (Medical Screening Systems) serve the purposes of the national projects “Healthcare”, ” Digital economy “and the Federal project “Fight against cancer deceases”. That is why in the course of preparing negotiations and meetings for our Kaluga guests, we received a live feedback from both responsible authorities and businesses.
