  FDA Approvals For Smart Algorithms In Medicine In One Giant Infographic Source : https://medicalfuturist.com/ Mental health algorithms mimicking empathy? A.I. outsmarting human doctors? Simple big data analytical software presented with clever marketing tactics? It’s difficult to assess the actual state of play when it comes to artificial intelligence in healthcare. Moreover, there’s no database that contains all the smart algorithms worth applying to medical processes. That’s the reason why we decided to collect every artificial intelligence-based algorithm that already received FDA approval – meaning that they are proven, reliable, and accurate solutions enabled by an official regulator for medical use. Let’s see the infographic in details! The factors of algorithmic healing When we started to assess the universe of smart algorithms in healthcare, we took into account temporal and spatial factors, accuracy and credibility, as well as medical specialties where A.I. algorith...

Simple Algorithms vs. A.I. And What They Mean For Medicine   Source : https://medicalfuturist.com/ Artificial intelligence (A.I.), machine learning (ML) and algorithms; if you are a regular at The Medical Futurist, you’ve come across these terms more than once whether it’s in our articles, videos or e-books. Indeed, our latest  e-book about investment in digital health  has a dedicated section about A.I. Even The Medical Futurist Institute’s  latest peer-reviewed study  was published as a guide for medical professionals about the technology. But it’s not just us with a fascination for the sci-fi-esque technology, the healthcare A.I. market  is a booming one , as is  life science research  around the technology. As A.I. becomes quasi-omnipresent in medicine, the hype factor comes into play. With the interest around the technology, companies might throw the term around left and right; claiming their solution uses A.I. when in fact, they only us...
