AI for Healthcare

Whether you are investing in new technology that uses machine learning or exploring the potential of generative AI, this article will build on your understanding through real-world examples and cutting-edge success stories.

Gain a clear understanding of each AI capability and how to approach it in your implementations with a focus on 5 key areas, including:

  1. Machine learning (ML): training algorithms using data sets, such as health records, to create models capable of performing such tasks as categorizing information or predicting outcomes.

  2. Deep learning: A subset of machine learning that involves greater volumes of data, training times, and layers of ML algorithms to produce neural networks capable of more complex tasks.

  3. Neutral language processing (NLP) is the use of ML to understand human language, whether verbal or written. In health care, NLP is used to interpret documentation, notes, reports, and published research.

  4. Automation: the use of AI in computer programs to automate administrative and clinical workflows. Some healthcare organizations use automation to improve the patient experience and the daily function of their facilities.

  5. Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR/VR): AR/VR coupled with AI is used in addiction medicine and mental health clinics for submersion therapy and behavior modification.

Use Cases

In healthcare, AI is being utilized to enhance diagnostics, personalize treatment plans, streamline administrative processes, and ultimately improve patient care.
