Main description:

AI in Clinical Practice: A Guide to Artificial Intelligence and Digital Medicine explains how artificial intelligence is applied to medicine, illustrating its enormous potential but also the issues raised, the limits and risks inherent in its use on a large scale. It focuses on the intersection between medicine and AI and its implications on the impact of human health care delivery.

The book discusses topics such as wearable devices, health data, Internet of Things, virtual reality, robotic assistance system, and digital intelligence in the health sector. Additionally, it discusses diagnostics and decision-making systems and machine/deep learning in clinical setting.

It is a valuable resource for clinicians, researchers, students, and members of the biomedical and medical fields who want to learn more about the use of AI to improve patient care.
