chrisj1968 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 http://www.military.com/veterans-report/va-to-use-ibms-watson-to-help-physicians?ESRC=vr.nl The Department of Veterans Affairs is using IBM's Watson technology in a pilot to assist physicians in helping accelerate the process of evidence-based medical decision making. The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) will also work with Watson for a clinical focus supporting veterans with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Watson will be studied to see how it can help VHA clinicians quickly make sense of an overwhelming amount of data. Watson is able to distill evidence and knowledge within seconds. Available now as a cloud service, IBM's Watson Discovery Advisor can reduce the time physicians need to test hypotheses and formulate conclusions that can advance their work. This could be a game changer for VHA clinicians, especially those who treat PTSD patients and must make sense of massive amounts of data to draw conclusions and make diagnoses.
