Originally published on 4/25/2022 on byte2bedside.com Examples of AI in healthcare typically involve machine learning (ML) models that can perform the same task a human expert performs manually (eg. diagnosing pneumonia on a chest X-ray). The hope is that these systems can be useful for augmenting (or even replacing) existing workflows for clinicians, but more or less preserve the same structure and approach towards diagnosing and treating disease.
