It is anticipated that the uses of AI will continue to grow, facilitating and optimizing work in healthcare.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Research, prevention, and diagnosis<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the area of research, <\/span>AI<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can identify patterns, tendencies, and complex correlations. This capability <\/span>can be used to<b> draw conclusions that help investigators to understand diseases and develop effective treatments<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In fact, there are already examples of situations in which AI has enabled the discovery of<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41557-023-01360-5#Sec2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">efficient methods for synthesizing pharmaceutical molecules and estimating the probabilities of success<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This helps accelerate the process of development of new pharmaceuticals as well as improving their effectiveness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With regard to prevention, AI can help identify risk factors and predict the probability of developing diseases. This can <strong>assist the patient in changing life habits<\/strong>, thus avoiding the emergence of the disease, and healthcare professionals can <strong>intervene before the disease develops.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In diagnosis, AI can locate patterns in the data collected during diagnostic testing, <strong>assisting physicians in diagnosis as well as in risk prediction.<\/strong> For example, in medical imaging for breast cancer, AI can provide a <strong>more precise and efficient model,<\/strong> as concluded in this<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2077-0383\/12\/2\/419\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">article<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and mentioned at the &#8220;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/salud-digital.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/A8-IX-jornada-horizontal.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">La (R)evoluci\u00f3n de la IA, en la Salud&#8221; event<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">organized by the &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/salud-digital.es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Asociaci\u00f3n Salud Digital<\/a>&#8221; (<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ASD<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Treatment and management of diseases<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once a diagnosis has been made, <\/span>AI can<a href=\"https:\/\/perseivivarium.com\/blog\/smart-hospitals-transforming-patient-care\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> help select the treatments and interventions that are most appropriate for each patient.<\/a><b>\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In particular, this function has stood out in the management of chronic diseases like<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC10591058\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">diabetes<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, where <\/span><b>AI has shown potential in optimizing glycemic control and treatment.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, <\/span><b>during patient follow-up, AI can provide support to the healthcare professionals<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, offering recommendations based on the information collected.
