How AWS HealthImaging works: medical image data is created by imaging modalities (e.g. CT scanners, and X-ray), it is temporarily copied to Amazon S3, and then imported to HealthImaging. From there, it can be used by diagnostic viewers and clinical applications (e.g. cloud PACS), for collaboration, and to build, train, and deploy AI/ML.
