Summary

Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to creation of unique systems with the help of algorithms and software that can perform certain tasks without human intervention and instructions. Artificial intelligence comprises integration of several technologies such as machine learning, natural language processing, reasoning, and perception. AI is used in healthcare for approximation of human cognition and analysis of complex medical and diagnostic imaging data. Artificial intelligence is primarily used in healthcare to analyze the relationship between treatment techniques and patient outcomes.

AI programs are deployed in medical practices such as diagnostic processes, drug development, personalized medicines, and patient monitoring. For instance, AI could aid in clinical processes by checking the vital signs, asking questions, and giving prescriptions to the patients. AI systems can also be used for alerts and reminders, image interpretation, information retrieval, and therapy planning during medical procedures. Deep learning technology is used for image recognition, signal recognition, and data mining, and is the most widely used form of AI technology.

Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare Market – Impact of Coronavirus (Covid-19) Pandemic

COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the adoption of artificial intelligence in healthcare. AI-based tools and solutions can work quickly, and were deployed at large scale, as response to the COVID-19 crisis. All the AI driven devices are responding dynamically to the pandemic, from diagnosis and to treatment and combating new transmission. Technology giants such as Microsoft, Google, Apple, Amazon, and Facebook are involved in initiatives related to remote communication between patients and clinicians, contact tracing, and drug development, among others. With their wide reach, capabilities, and financial resources, these players are in a unique position to impact the U.S.’s fragmented healthcare system and capitalize on increasing demand for consumer tools such as monitoring applications that put patients in control of physician’s care.

The artificial intelligence in healthcare market is estimated to be valued at US$ 3,285.0 million in 2020 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 56.2% during the forecast period (2020-2027).

Increasing application of AI in technologies utilized in the pharmaceutical industry is expected to boost growth of the artificial intelligence in healthcare market

Increasing application of artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies in areas ranging from pharmaceutical drug development to patient care is expected to drive growth of the artificial intelligence in healthcare market. Moreover, increasing number of collaborations among leading AI vendors and life science companies is expected to result in rapid introduction of AI in medical devices and drug development. For instance, in January 2018, Owkin France, a predictive analytics company, raised US$ 11 million in a Series A funding round, to develop artificial algorithms for speeding up drug development process. The company intends to use this fund in scaling up its innovative platform: OWKIN Socrates, cultivate high-value partnerships with leading healthcare organizations, and fuel internal growth. .

Furthermore, pharmaceutical organizations can speed up the process of drug development, from drug discovery to commercialization, by using artificial intelligence. It can aid in development of personalized medicines. Moreover, it is increasingly being used in advanced disease management such as cancer diagnosis and treatment, as studies have suggested that artificial intelligence may detect breast cancer spread to lymph nodes.

For instance, in October 2017, researchers from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), Harvard Medical School, and Massachusetts General Hospital collaborated to apply AI in early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer. The model developed by these scientists correctly diagnosed 97% of the cases, in 335 high-risk lesions tested patients.
