learnings from building and deploying a machine learning product from scratch

Radiology reports can be difficult to interpret by non-medical individuals, as they are full of technical jargon. One of the unique services Ezra provides to its members is a comprehensive report written by licensed medical providers explaining all the medical findings noted by the radiologist, translated into easy-to-read, non-technical language. In addition, the medical team includes a list of actionable next steps for each notable finding in a radiology report, depending on its severity. This comprehensive Ezra Report gives members the peace of mind and care they deserve.

I joined Ezra to build a machine-learning solution that automates the process of generating the Ezra Report from radiology reports. At the time I joined, the process was manual, time-consuming, and error-prone. Fast forward to today, with a machine learning-based web app, Ezra Reporter, the medical team saves 75 minutes per report, a 600% productivity boost!

I have shared my experience with this project on Ezra's tech blog.
