Artificial Intelligence in Human Health: a Sociotechnical Approach

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare is the use of algorithms and software to inexact human cognition in the analysis of complex medical data. The primary aim of health-related AI applications is to analyze relationships between prevention or treatment procedures and patient outcomes. For many years, by necessity general practice in medicine has been to gather data and make generalizations. Now as we are in an age where masses of data can be collected and analyzed very quickly, personalizing treatment based on specific knowledge is becoming more feasible.This paper presents a study of various applications of artificial intelligence in healthcare system and tool and devices used in it.
