A new case study demonstrates how ChatGPT helped clinicians to accelerate the design of diabetes prevention software. The research, published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research, examined the capabilities of a form of artificial intelligence (AI) called generative AI or GenAI, which predicts likely options for the next word in any sentence based on [...]
Researchers are developing a system to measure real-world eating behaviour using AI-enabled wearable sensors, which could help tackle obesity. A pedometer measures your steps, but what if you had a similar automated device to measure your eating behaviour? Evidence from nutritional studies has long shown that the speed, timing and duration of an individual’s eating [...]
NHS trusts across England are set to ramp up access to dermatology with the rollout of AI to fast-track identifying potential skin cancers. Nine NHS trusts have been funded to pilot Skin Analytics’ AI medical device to detect cancerous skin lesions, with around 45,000 patients benefiting from this groundbreaking technology by the summer when skin cancer [...]
AI can help to help refine and target the myriad computerised alerts intended to assist doctors and other team members in day-to-day clinical decision-making, accordoing to a new study from the US. These pop-up notifications advise individuals on anything from drug contraindications to gaps in patient care documentation. But exclusion criteria and targeting of these [...]
