Transforming Medical Imaging, Patient Monitoring, Ophthalmic and Cancer Diagnostics through Implementation of AI

Medical device manufacturers are increasingly incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) in their systems with the aim to better assist healthcare providers and also improve the care provided to the patients. AI systems have the ability to acquire data, deploy logical rules for processing the data, generate reasonable solutions and automatically recognize and rectify mistakes. These abilities have enabled the systems to make a comprehensive analysis of the patient’s condition from a large set of medical data, reduce clinical variations, decrease physicians’ burnout, in turn, improving decision making at the point of care.

This research service (RS) highlights the innovations in platforms that are using AI in areas such as medical imaging, patient health monitoring, cancer and ophthalmic diagnostics. It also discusses the impact of these innovations, funding, drivers and challenges, and future growth opportunities.
