The use of artificial intelligence in healthcare has the potential to assist healthcare providers in many aspects of patient care and administrative processes as well as improve patient outcomes.
AI analyzes data throughout a healthcare system to mine, automate and predict processes. Some of the use cases are :
1. Early Diagnosis of diseases
2. Improved clinical trial processes
3. Mental health apps etc.

4. Vision loss due to diabetic eye disease is on the rise; image analysis of the retina
using machine learning
can speed up detection of diabetic retinopathy, thereby preventing loss of Vision
6. Electronic Health records follow machine readable formats, however the notes written as
text by physicians/ radiologists can help with accurate and quicker diagnosis.
NLP is used to extract text and unstructured data into
machine-readable format to help research, analyze and
interpret vast quantities of text data
8. Researchers are using deep learning to train machines to
identify cancerous tissues with an accuracy comparable to a
trained physicist. Deep learning holds unique value in detecting
cancer as it can help achieve higher diagnostic accuracy in
comparison to domain experts.
12. Machine learning to re-think clinical trials to reduce the time
to bring a drug to market.
AI/ML is also to using AI and genomic data to gather new
insights about incurable, prevalent diseases.
14. AI offers numerous opportunities for the advancement of robotic surgery. It
can facilitate interaction mediums between surgeons and surgical robots, for
example by recognizing surgeons' movements (e.g. head, eyes, hand) and
converting them into an action command for the surgical robot.
16. Patient health monitoring has benefited from AI and
has gained momentum since the COVID-19 pandemic.
The data collected through health monitoring devices,
sensors and wearable has led to using AI/ML to deliver
targeted, outcome-based therapies.
18. Hospital management systems help health care providers and
medical practitioners to help with hospital administration such as
scheduling, admissions, Electronic health records, medical billing,
accounts, claims etc. With the help of AI, these processes are being
automated and made more efficient, and less time-consuming.
20. There are many uses of AI for patient care using sensors and smart health devices.
For e.g., Kardia mobile has launched an FDA cleared mobile app along with a finger
pad that that can assess Parkinson’s disease symptoms. The app uses the gyroscope
found in many mobile devices to analyze and quantify tremors, patterns in gait, and
performance in a “finger tapping” test. An AI algorithm differentiates between
actual tremors and “bad data,” such as a dropped phone or the wrong action in
response to the app’s question.
22. Machine learning models are used by health care
insurance companies and government to automate claims
assessment and routing based on existing fraud patterns.
This process flags potentially fraudulent claims for further
review, but also has the added benefit of automatically
identifying good transactions and streamlining their
approval and payment.
