Announced little more than a year ago, 杏吧视频鈥檚 second significant already is offering meaningful results.
Today, the two organizations announced a made possible by pooling their respective strengths: the university鈥檚 in medical imaging, and Microsoft鈥檚 in quantum computing.
Specifically, they shared how Microsoft researchers鈥 "quantum inspired" algorithms led to dramatic improvements in the application of CWRU鈥檚 pioneering technique, (MRF). Specifically, the algorithms allowed for scans that are 30 percent more precise in measuring identifiers of disease鈥攁nd produced as much as three times faster than the leading existing techniques.
Quantum computing holds the promise of processes that are exponentially more powerful鈥攁nd quick鈥攖han in today鈥檚 machines. While the realization of such possibilities are still years away, Microsoft researchers found a way to apply some of the principles behind the approach. The resulting algorithm runs on current technology, yet delivers state-of-the-future findings.
As CWRU radiology professor and director of MRI research Mark Griswold explained, 鈥淸t]here are unique advantages with the quantum-inspired algorithms that are allowing us to get results that we just haven鈥檛 been able to see with anything else.鈥 Such progress means that MRF鈥檚 advantages over traditional MRIs鈥攕uch as earlier detection of disease as well as of signs of whether a prescribed treatment is working鈥攁re increasingly closer to becoming a reality for patients.
Krysta Svore, Microsoft鈥檚 leader for quantum research at the company鈥檚 Redmond headquarters, will share more about the quantum computing and the company鈥檚 quantum-inspired algorithms at 4:55 p.m. today in a conversation with Fortune editor Robert Hackett and Andrew Fursman, the CEO of 1Qbit, another quantum computing company.
