MEDICAL IMAGE PROCESSING AND DEEP LEARNING

Location: Bordeaux, France
Start: now

Keywords: Echocardiography, Deep learning

Education: MSc/Ph.D. in computer science/mathematics/data science or similar

Experience: 5+ years

Context: 

DESKi, “learn” in Breton, is a young and innovative company, combining a solid expertise in both echography and artificial intelligence. 

Our vision is to unleash access to cardiac care by spreading ultrasound expertise.

 

After 4 years of research, we developed real-time AI-driven algorithms able to guide operators performing cardiac ultrasound exams. 

Deski is now building HeartFocus to empower any healthcare professional to accurately perform a cardiac ultrasound exam and support the interpretation of the acquired US images. 

 

Having secured its financing, DESKi will start commercialized in 2024 after the attainment of FDA and CE certification.
