Use Case Code : ONCO_DRG

Use Case Description:

Chemotherepeutic agents act against the rapidly dividing cancer cells. As collateral damage happens, the patients develop several side effects. Such side effects may vary from nausea, vomiting to a major cardiac event. Based upon the exisitng knowledge from published scientific literature, we try to pre-empt such toxicities. This may mean not giving a particular drug, or decreasing dosage or starting other medicines emperically to counter the effects. There is merit in being able to evaluate these effects, not only rare catastrophic ones but also routine ones with higher grades. We want to evaluate if AI can predict such toxicities to various chemotherepeutic drugs.

Expected Outcomes – Deliverables:

Prediction of grade 3/4 toxicities related to commonly used drugs to treat various cancers. Input variables will include clinical and demographic data, co-morbidites, various labarotary parameters

Any other inputs:

Before proceeding we can discuss about the drugs we would like to cover.

Use Case Code : LLM_PC

Use Case Description:

In rural areas, conducting eye-checkup camps poses challenges due to the high costs associated with hiring patient counselors. Typically, only one human counselor is available, leading to inefficiencies when dealing with a large number of people. To address this issue, a patient counseling chatbot based on Large Language Models (LLMs), based on English and specifically crafted for the Tamil language and tailored to the domain of Ophthalmology is needed. It should capture spoken language inputs, comprehend user queries, retrieve relevant medical information, and synthesize natural-sounding speech for responses. The key innovation lies in the adaptability and accessibility of the chatbot. It must be able to get deployed on any device.

Expected Outcomes – Deliverables:

The solution must not only enhance the efficiency of counseling sessions but also aim to revolutionize patient counseling practices, ultimately improving healthcare accessibility and outcomes in rural communities.

Use Case Code : ONCO_THYR

Use Case Description:

Thyroid nodules may be present in 30-40% of the general population. Majority of these nodules are benign, but in 5-10% cases these may be malignant. Generally, benign nodules don’t need any intervention. We generally judge whether a nodule is benign or malignant based upon USG and FNAC findings. Molecular tests have also come up in this domain. Still, we end up operating upon a large number of cases who eventually turn out to be benign. These are the patients who could have potentially avoided surgery. There is a need to be able to find out which nodules are at higher risk of malignancy. We want an AI based tool to predict risk of malignancy in thyroid nodules using clinical details (age, gender, etc), fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and ultrasounf (USG) features

Expected Outcomes – Deliverables:

Better risk prediction of malignancy in thyroid nodules. This will help avoid surgery in many benign cases.

Any other inputs:

FNAC slides will need digitalization
