AI can’t replace your doctor – but it might help you find the right one. New study by @al2na.bsky.social from #mdcBerlin: ✔️ 97% accuracy in specialist referrals ✔️ 82% in diagnosis ⚠️ Triage still needs work 👉 Interview: www.helmholtz.de/en/newsroom/... 👉 Study: www.mdc-berlin.de/news/news/ai...

The background is filled with greenery and blurred buildings. Overlaid text in white sans-serif font appears in the lower left corner, reading “ALTUNA AKALIN,” with “AKALIN” in bold uppercase, all inside two light blue text boxes.

🩺 Clinicians mostly agree with what the models spit out—what mattered was whether its advice would guide safe care, not whether every word matched the textbook. 🤖 AI isn’t replacing clinicians; it’s fast becoming the teammate we’ve been waiting for. #HealthcareAI

Each cancer is different, and so are the specific treatment options. "Onconaut," an #AI-based tool developed by #mdcBerlin's @al2na.bsky.social and his team, is designed to navigate through the maze of options more efficiently.

“Onconaut,” an #AI-based online tool that #mdcBerlin's @al2na.bsky.social has developed, helps oncologists and patients to find the most up-to-date and tailored treatment possible. @helmholtzai.bsky.social has now recognized it as the “Best digital resource.” More: www.mdc-berlin.de/news/news/na...

Graphic with text: The title "ONCONAUT" is at the top, featuring an illustration of a space helmet with a DNA strand in the background [icon of the "onconaut.ai" program]. Below, the text reads 'ALTUNA AKALIN' with a small portrait of a person [Altuna Akalin] in the bottom left corner.
