Artificial intelligence (AI) is already influencing all areas of life and is helping people to carry out their professional tasks. In the healthcare sector, AI is considered a key technology and a driver of progress and employment: New algorithms are making AI a game changer in the healthcare market, conventional treatment methods are changing in the diagnosis and therapy of patients, and medical and nursing staff are to be supported and relieved by the use of AI. Artificial intelligence promises great benefits for individuals and companies. However, the social, financial, technical and legal framework conditions must also be taken into account: Despite the many possibilities, the use of AI must be critically scrutinized and reflected upon in the case of personal data and certain business models.
This anthology provides an overview of current and sometimes controversial topics from theory, research, transfer and practice. In 43 contributions, 82 renowned authors and experts present their knowledge, findings, experiences and assessments and highlight approaches to solutions and problem areas in the use of artificial intelligence in healthcare. The anthology covers a wide range of AI topics relevant to the healthcare sector, including AI in chronic diseases, AI innovations in automation, robotics and digitization, as well as the use of AI in speech, text, image and pattern recognition.
The book is suitable for beginners as well as practitioners and scientists thanks to the clear bundling and classification of the book contributions in topic-related overviews.
