In the healthcare industry artificial intelligence (AI) has become a disruptive technology that is revolutionizing patient care, diagnostics, and research. This abstract provides an overview of the main points and findings related to AI in healthcare exploring its advancements, applications, and ethical challenges. The rapid growth of AI technologies has led to remarkable improvements in healthcare. AI algorithms have demonstrated exceptional capabilities in analyzing number of patient data, enabling early disease detection, personalized treatment plans, and improved patient outcomes. Machine learning algorithms, such as deep learning and natural language processing, have been effectively employed to analyze medical images, predict disease progression, and support clinical decision-making. AI applications in healthcare span across various domains, including radiology, pathology, genomics, drug discovery, and patient monitoring. Telemedicine and AI-driven virtual health assistants have extended healthcare access to remote areas, empowering patients with self-care tools and enabling real-time communication with healthcare professionals. While it's undeniable that AI brings significant advantages to the field of healthcare, it's vital to emphasize the importance of ethical concerns. Additionally, ensuring that AI algorithms are transparent and interpretable is essential for establishing trust and promoting the responsible use of AI technology in clinical environments.
