The newly approved device can be worn for up to a week at a time, with no daily maintenance required, and includes advanced AI algorithms that minimize the risk of false alarms or inappropriate shocks.

This expansion comes alongside a growing trend of patients being given near immediate access to their imaging and radiology reports.

Bill Gates wasn’t just wrong to suggest AI will make physicians unnecessary. He was reckless. 

Healthcare may finally have struck a healthy balance between AI hype and AI reality, according to a report from impartial observers who are also, indirectly at least, healthcare AI stakeholders.

Partho Sengupta, MD, shared his perspective on the current state of artificial intelligence in cardiology. The technology continues to evolve, he said, though it does still face certain limitations.

AI shines in radiology when tasked with interpreting images of patients whose odds of illness are either very high or very low. In these cases, the technology could help mitigate burnout and supplement staffing. 

Researchers have developed a deep learning model that can spot longitudinal changes in patients' brain imaging that could be indicative of cancer recurrence. 

Advanced AI can provide real-time feedback to cardiologists, helping them deliver high-quality care.
