National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH) has officially introduced two newly acquired H200 supercomputers, marking a significant step forward in leveraging smart technology to enhance healthcare quality. With the H200 systems in place, NTUH's computational capacity has been substantially strengthened, accelerating research progress and positioning the hospital as Taiwan's leading medical institution in AI computational capabilities. A press conference was held today (December 4) to showcase this achievement.
Through collaboration among multidisciplinary teams, NTUH has achieved impressive results in applying generative AI and immersive XR technologies, significantly improving the quality and efficiency of medical services. The hospital’s Smart Healthcare Center has developed its own large language model (LLM) and collaborated with various departments, including the Medical Records Management Office, Health Management Center, Telemedicine Center, Nursing Department, IT Department, and Pathology Department, to launch multiple innovative applications.
These include:
Additionally, NTUH’s IT Department has utilized LLM technology to develop capabilities such as automated medical record summarization, assisted generation of diagnostic reports, unstructured data mining, and query-based report generation. These innovations are integrated into the hospital's Healthcare Information System (HIS).
A press conference tomorrow will highlight how NTUH's H200 supercomputers are driving smart healthcare innovation. Hospital Director Wu Ming-Hsien will preside over the event, and the Department of Surgery, led by Chief Chen Jin-Hsing, will present the OpVerse VR surgical simulation platform.
This cutting-edge platform combines high-precision imaging reconstruction with virtual reality to provide surgeons with an ultra-realistic simulation environment. It allows for the precise rehearsal of complex and high-risk procedures, enhancing surgical safety and improving patient and family understanding of medical conditions. These groundbreaking innovations will be featured at NTUH’s exhibition area during the Healthcare+ Expo Taiwan from December 5 to 8.
Since introducing two A100 supercomputers in 2020, NTUH has successfully applied generative AI and XR technologies in education, research, and clinical services, achieving exceptional results. With the launch of the H200 systems, the hospital plans to further advance multimodal LLM projects, aiming to enhance patient service quality while optimizing operational processes across the board.
NTUH also plans to strengthen collaborations with domestic and international academic and medical institutions to advance smart healthcare research in Taiwan. The hospital remains committed to investing in AI and advanced technologies to provide cutting-edge, high-quality medical services for patients.
