How medical AI could support earlier prediction, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.
Hear from the authors of a Frontiers in Science lead article as they map medical AI’s expanding capabilities, from AI-driven molecular biology to multimodal tools for diagnosis and treatment.
Prof Hutan Ashrafian and Prof Ahmad Guni classify medical AI’s functions into six domains and define a spectrum of independence, ranging from advisory support to increasingly autonomous navigator roles. They will discuss the technical and health-system advances needed to translate these capabilities into improved health outcomes.
Join the authors to explore the safeguards needed for responsible, sustainable, and equitable adoption, including how increasingly capable AI can be introduced while maintaining appropriate human oversight.
