So far, there has been a lot of talk about the potential of using artificial intelligence in medicine and the health care sector, but this question arises, in which parts of the medical field has artificial intelligence been introduced in practice? Normally, new technologies are accepted slowly in the field of medicine. However, in some areas, doctors find AI useful and reliable. In this article, we introduce areas of medicine and health care where artificial intelligence has entered. Stay with us.

Robotic surgery

Currently, artificial intelligence is only used in simple robotic surgeries, including laser eye surgery and hair transplant surgery .

Image analysis

Image analysis is the extraction of useful information from images, usually digital images. Specialists recently use automatic systems based on artificial intelligence and computer vision to analyze image information such as X - rays and retinal images .

Genetics

Genetic analysis is one of the practical parts of medicine. Artificial intelligence tools can extract genetic information with high speed and accuracy. For example, the technology of IBM Watson examines the genetics of people and provides the required clinical tests and recommended drugs in the shortest possible time. It should be noted that Watson artificial intelligence has been used only in limited and specific applications .

Pathology 

Pathology is a branch of medical science that discusses the effects of diseases and injuries at the tissue, cellular, and molecular level. Experimental systems based on artificial intelligence have been very successful in analyzing tissue samples, but they have not yet been approved for clinical use .

Clinical decision support system

Clinical decision support system is a system based on health information technology that helps doctors and other health service providers in the decision-making process. Clinical decision support systems combine observations and health knowledge to enable the best The decision to provide clinical treatment services to the staff with the aim of improving health services. For example, hospitals use tools to predict septic shock in patients , but these tools have not been approved yet .

Virtual nursing

Currently, simple systems are used to check the patient's condition remotely between the periods of in-person visits. These systems based on artificial intelligence automatically send necessary information to doctors .

Implementation of administrative affairs and medical insurance

Many companies use artificial intelligence tools to increase the efficiency of administrative tasks such as payment and medical insurance .

Mental health

Recently, researchers are designing and producing applications to monitor people's depression. With the help of mobile phone data and virtual networks, they obtain the information needed to analyze people's mental health.
