Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare. Applications, Risks, Ethical and Societal Impacts

Document from the year 2024 in the subject Health - Health system, grade: 1, language: English, abstract: Recent developments in machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) have produced numerous achievements across a range of industries, including healthcare. Intelligent medical system innovations have completely changed the way healthcare services are delivered. These innovations cover everything from automating administrative activities and cutting operating expenses to generating clinical diagnoses, creating customised treatments and medications, and helping with patient monitoring. The authors of this book highlight important uses of AI in the broader field of health care, where it has achieved notable success. The many chapters will provide the readers with an array of instances that demonstrate the vast array of application domains that employ cutting-edge AI techniques, so corroborating the adaptability and efficacy of an AI strategy in the medical and health fields. We believe that this book is perfect for both those who are unfamiliar with the idea of artificial intelligence in healthcare and early-career scholars who want to deepen their understanding of the field. While by no means comprehensive, the list of applications that will be provided is undoubtedly diverse.
