The power of AI in surgery

Artificial intelligence (AI), defined as algorithms that enable machines to perform cognitive functions (such as problem solving and decision-making), has changed for some time now the face of healthcare through machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NLP). Its use in surgery, however, took a longer time than in other medical specialties, mainly because of missing...

Tapping Precision Medicine to Provide Individualised Eye Care

What if a powerful tool could be created, using artificial intelligence (AI), that would help diagnose, predict and treat the disease process in a retina? That is the question T.Y. Alvin Liu, M.D., assistant professor of ophthalmology at Wilmer Eye Institute at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and a retina specialist, has set out to answer.

Early detection of sepsis using artificial intelligence: a scoping review protocol

Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. To decrease the high case fatality rates and morbidity for sepsis and septic shock, there is a need to increase the accuracy of early detection of suspected sepsis in prehospital and emergency department settings. This may be achieved by developing risk...

Researchers Use MRI to Show Brain Changes, Differences in Children with ADHD

Multitasking is not just an office skill. It’s key to functioning as a human, and it involves something called cognitive flexibility – the ability to smoothly switch between mental processes. UNC scientists conducted a study to image the neural activity analogues to cognitive flexibility and discover differences in the brain activity of children with ADHD and those without.

Major step forward in fabricating an artificial heart, fit for a human

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S. Heart disease is so deadly in part because the heart, unlike other organs, cannot repair itself after injury. That is why tissue engineering, ultimately including the wholesale fabrication of an entire human heart for transplant, is so important for the future of cardiac medicine.
