Washington - A recent study conducted with collaborators from the University of Vermont and Cedars-Sinai describes the performance of Biocogniv's new AI-COVID software.
The team found high accuracy in predicting the probability of COVID-19 infection using routine blood tests, which can help hospitals reduce the number of patients referred for scarce PCR testing.
Their study in the Journal of Medical Internet Research is available online.
"Nine months into this pandemic, we now have a better understanding of how to care for patients with COVID-19," said lead author and University of Vermont Assistant Professor Timothy Plante, M.D., M.H.S., "but there's still a big bottleneck in COVID-19 diagnosis with PCR testing."
