About This Event

AWS HealthImaging (AHI) is a HIPAA-eligible, highly scalable, performant, and cost-effective medical imagery store. It delivers sub-second image retrieval latencies at scale powered by lossless High-Throughput JPEG 2000 (HTJ2K) encoding. The client application can retrieve medical images from AHI and decode with HTJ2K using the nvJPEG2000 developed by NVIDIA at incredibly fast speeds. Decoding on the GPU is extremely beneficial, as the image data is already in GPU memory for model training. This eliminates the need to copy data in case decoding on the CPU and enables fast HPC use cases at lower cost.
