With new <\/span>technological advances<\/span><\/a> making their way\u00a0into the healthcare sector, will artificial intelligence be a blessing or a curse for this industry? Artificial intelligence in healthcare\u00a0is a recent technological trend that is\u00a0currently in the medical research and developmental stage. The medical industry hopes to incorporate AIs in various aspects of healthcare from<\/span>\u00a0the drug creation process\u00a0to conducting drug trials, to name a few. Artificial intelligence\u00a0has been incorporated in today\u2019s healthcare technologies in multiple ways. Is this the future of healthcare?<\/span><\/p>\n

Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Artificial Intelligence and Drug Creation:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Medical scientists are adamantly seeking technology to improve their process of drug creations, according to the\u00a0Wall Street Journal<\/a>.\u00a0Artificial intelligence is utilized to help<\/span>\u00a0identify the effects of new drugs on patients. Various pharmaceutical companies have reported hopes of refining the drug-making process to ensure a more accurate procedure.\u00a0The companies believe that through the use of artificial intelligence, they will be able to filter harmful and unnecessary chemical compounds that might otherwise make\u00a0their way into drugs. In particular, Dr. Narain of Merck KGaA highlights how artificial intelligence will help doctors and medical scientists fight cancer by allowing precision and more data collection to be made.\u00a0<\/span>In fact, pharmaceuticals are working with these new technologies to help patients properly select clinical trials that they could participate in.<\/p>\n

Artificial Intelligence and Genome Sequencing:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A Canadian genetic medicine company, Deep Genomics, is using artificial intelligence to increase genetic research in the medical and scientific field. Deep Genomics, which was started by University of Toronto professor Brendan Frey, aims to identify how learning about genome sequencing can\u00a0help medical research. Frey\u2019s company utilizes artificial intelligence to analyze genetic data in order to decode the information, according to\u00a0Business Insider<\/a>. Using AI in the field of genetics could unlock the Pandora\u2019s Box of the world of genetics and aid researchers and\u00a0physicians across the world\u00a0to understanding and detecting various genetic mutations and\/or diseases. In the near future, artificial intelligence will be able to not only access and analyze genetic information, but scientists hope to also analyze genetic behavioral patterns and how they work to activate and contribute to various medical conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Artificial Intelligence and Patient Care:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Have you ever thought about how artificial intelligence programs such as Siri and Alexa could help you diagnose medical conditions? Various medical companies across the world have experimented with using artificial intelligence in healthcare to improve patient care. The idea of an \u201cAI doctor\u201d is a new development that UK health service provider Babylon Health\u00a0is currently working to perfect. Medical companies have conducted various R&D to identify how artificial intelligence could be used to improve their patient care system through the implementation of a potential AI chatbot to help patients obtain better and more precise diagnoses of various medical conditions. According to <\/span>Forbes<\/span><\/a>, hospitals and companies in China have test-started this AI technology to improve diagnoses for lung cancer. If the creation of an \u201cAI doctor\u201d proves to be a successful technological advancement for the healthcare industry, this could revolutionize how patients receive care for medical conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Artificial Intelligence and Emotional Diagnoses:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Strong <\/span>emotional intelligence<\/span><\/a> is a vital skill necessary to be able to detect symptoms with patients, particularly relating to mental health issues. Could artificial intelligence help patients uncover a diagnosis? Medical research companies have been working towards incorporating artificial intelligence symptoms similar to Alexa to identify patterns of inconsistent behaviors within users.\u00a0 Serving as an interactive system, researchers hope to be able to further implement technology in the healthcare industry. There’s also a hope to\u00a0incorporate emotional intelligence into software. Researchers hope that by using emotional intelligence, more data could be collected and analyzed on a more personal level to provide\u00a0better accuracy in the diagnosis experience.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
