In recent months, NVIDIA’s explosive growth has garnered headlines throughout the world. This can be attributed, in part, to the explosive rise in demand for sophisticated artificial intelligence systems hardware—a market in which NVIDIA has been a leader in innovation for many years.
In keeping with this innovation, NVIDIA’s efforts have made major advancements possible in a wide range of industries, with the healthcare sector leading the way in gaining from these advancements. In actuality, NVIDIA has been working on projects related to healthcare for almost 20 years, particularly since the business began gradually moving away from making graphics cards and toward sophisticated computers and hardware. NVIDIA, while not a traditional healthcare company in and of itself, has been instrumental in the dramatic transformation of the healthcare sector over the past few decades, moving from paper records and clipboards to digital records and imaging.
In order to actually help drive better outcomes, the company has placed particular emphasis on leveraging the explosion of healthcare data to obtain longitudinal insights, compile it for more sophisticated applications, and use it to build sophisticated models that power practical and tangible applications for end users. Regarding this, NVIDIA’s Vice President and General Manager of Healthcare, Kimberly Powell, notes that the business has concentrated on a number of important application areas, such as digital health, digital biology, and digital surgery.
