Patients benefit from automatically simplified reports

AI helps cancer patients better understand CT reports

Medical reports written in technical terminology can pose challenges for patients. A team at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has investigated how artificial intelligence can make CT findings easier to understand. In the study, reading time decreased, and patients rated the automatically simplified texts as more comprehensible and more helpful.

The use of AI in lectures and exercises

Using AI tools to shape the future of higher education teaching

AI-supported teaching methods are becoming increasingly common in lectures and tutorials. During the visit by Bavarian Minister of Science Markus Blume to the Technical University of Munich (TUM), the focus was on various tools developed at Bavarian universities. In addition, the initial results of the research project “AIffectiveness in Education” were presented. Using OneTutor, an AI tutor software developed at TUM, the project investigates how effectively AI systems can support learning.

TUM spin-off MSAID

Using artificial intelligence to track proteins

Faster, better, and ideally tailored to each individual: the medicine of the future aims to deliver precise diagnoses and treatment plans. The interaction of proteins plays a key role in this. To understand this interplay, large, high-quality datasets must be analyzed as efficiently as possible. MSAID, a spin-off of the Technical University of Munich (TUM), has developed AI-powered software that can do this even for complex samples.

Text-to-image generators reproduce and magnify role stereotypes

Strength of gender biases in AI images varies across languages

Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and TU Darmstadt have studied how text-to-image generators deal with gender stereotypes in various languages. The results show that the models not only reflect gender biases, but also amplify them. The direction and strength of the distortion depends on the language in question.

Eye surgery for age-related macular degeneration

New robot delivers ultra-precision injections with rapid setup times

Many surgeons even admit that medical robots can now operate with greater precision than human specialists. However, the complex preparation required for robotic surgery still takes far too long. But a new robotic assistant for eye surgery for age-related macular degeneration (AMD) developed by Prof. Mohammad Ali Nasseri from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) is ready to go in just under five minutes.
