AI for Personalized Medicine and Clinical Decision Support

Abstract

With rapidly evolving healthcare, artificial intelligence (AI) is an emerging tool of the healthcare environment and personalized medicine. AI can read large volumes of data about patients, such as genetic profile, medical imaging, demographics, and lifestyle factors, faster and more accurately than ever before using advanced machine learning models. This detailed data analysis would allow experts in the health sector to devise the best treatment plans that would suit the specific condition of each patient, maximizing therapeutic effect while minimizing side effects. This chapter demonstrates how AI can avert problems present in today's healthcare practice using comparative frameworks and practical examples. AI-based clinical decision support systems are enabling physicians to enjoy real-time insights, making diagnoses more accurate and reducing human errors through early disease detection and best-practice recommendations.
