GE’s global campaign to accelerate the fight against cancer kicked off earlier this month—along with $1 billion in R&D spending over the next five years, GE and several venture capital partners announced a $100 million open innovation challenge to find and fund the best ideas for improving breast cancer diagnostics and previewed several new healthcare technologies.

Be sure to check out other segments of the GE Show’s Visions of Health episode, from body maps to health data.
