AI in health care

[tllwd]

AI is already being used in a range of ways in Australian health and care settings.

cancer screening – analyses images to detect cervical, breast and prostate cancer

aged care homes – AI robots for companionship and monitoring

scribes – generative AI that listens to patient consultations and automatically generates notes, care plans and orders for tests

clinical decision support – combines information about diseases and treatment pathways and suggests diagnoses and tests based on patient symptoms

chatbots – assists in finding information on healthcare websites

AI in surgical tools – AI helps surgeons to make decisions and operate instruments during surgery

skin checks – analyses photographs to check skin health, detect melanoma or other skin cancers

image analysis in radiology and pathology – AI reads X-ray images to diagnose disease or broken bones

AI in medical records – analyses risks to patients to predict bed usage or surges on the healthcare system

wound care – monitors images of wounds, measures and analyses healing, using AI to support healing at home and in regional locations.

AI or human doctors, whom do you trust more?
