AI and Healthcare: Opportunities and Challenges| Book Publisher International

 In the dynamic world of healthcare, a revolutionary transformation is underway, heralded by the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI). This book delves deep into the essence of AI, beginning with a comprehensive introduction that demystifies what AI truly is, clarifies the distinction between AI, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning, and provides a handy AI Keyword Glossary for easy understanding. As we journey through the history of AI, we encounter the AI boom, marking a pivotal shift in how technology influences our lives.

 

Venturing into the Marvelous World of AI, we explore its capabilities in learning, vision, and language understanding, alongside a deep dive into AI systems, architecture, and the intricacies of designing an AI product. The narrative then transitions into AI's profound influence on various industries, with a special focus on healthcare. Through an overview of global healthcare systems, the book lays the groundwork for understanding the fundamental elements and challenges within healthcare, setting the stage for AI's transformative potential.

 

As we navigate the future of healthcare, the role of AI technology becomes unmistakably central, acting as a super detective in diagnostics, enhancing patient engagement, and accelerating drug discovery among its numerous applications. The book further explores the intricate relationship between AI and healthcare data, shedding light on machine learning models, their applications, advantages, and limitations within the healthcare context.

 

Diving into the building blocks of healthcare data security, we address the sensitivity of healthcare data, regulatory challenges, and the implementation of robust security measures. Real-world applications exemplify AI's practicality, while emerging technologies such as Blockchain and the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) hint at the future landscape.

 

A pivotal chapter on AI and healthcare ethics, equity, and regulation underscores the importance of ethical AI, patient consent, privacy, and the ongoing battle against AI bias. Through case studies and examples, including IBM Watson for Oncology and Google DeepMind's partnership with the NHS, the narrative illustrates both triumphs and trials in the AI healthcare domain.

 

The journey continues with a glimpse into the future, emphasizing the development of an AI-ready healthcare workforce, the role of government and policy in shaping AI in healthcare, and a call to action for stakeholders. The book concludes with reflections on the future prospects of AI in healthcare, painting a picture of a landscape where AI and human expertise converge to create a more efficient, equitable, and innovative healthcare system.

 

Through this exploration, "The Rise of Generative AI: From DeepFakes to Creative Arts" offers readers a comprehensive guide to understanding and navigating the complex yet promising world of AI in healthcare. It serves as a beacon for professionals, policymakers, and enthusiasts alike, illuminating the path towards a future where technology and healthcare unite to enhance the human experience.

Greening Regional Airports: A Vision for Carbon Neutral Infrastructure | Chapter 12 | Contemporary Perspective on Science, Technology and Research Vol. 3

 This study provides an overview of the energy demand of a regional airport, divided into individual time horizons. The electrification of aircraft systems raises the question of whether airports will be among the largest electricity consumers in our infrastructure in the future. Sustainability and especially emission reductions are significant challenges for airports that are currently being addressed. The Clean Sky 2 project GENESIS addresses the environmental sustainability of hybrid-electric 50-passenger aircraft systems in a life cycle perspective to support the development of a technology roadmap for the transition to sustainable and competitive electric aircraft systems. This article originates from the GENESIS research and describes various options for ground power supply at a regional airport. Potential solutions for airport infrastructure with a short (2030), medium (2040), and long (2050) time horizon are proposed. In addition to the environmental and conservation benefi...

Risk Factors for Postpartum Psychiatric Disorders. A Review of the Literature | Chapter 8 | New Visions in Medicine and Medical Science Vol. 4

  Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the risk factors for the development of postpartum psychiatric disorders through international literature. Materials and Methods: Throughout many articles in PubMed, Google scholar and PsycInfo, a great amount of recent data was gathered to identify the disorders that are most common as well as their risk factors. Results: After childbirth, most commonly women experience postpartum depression, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder and postpartum psychosis. All the disorders have many similar risk-factors with the main one being preexisting psychiatric disorder and many similar symptoms too. Conclusions: Women after childbirth are at risk of experience many psychiatric disorders, such as postpartum distress, postpartum post traumatic stress disorder and even more rarely postpartum psychosis. It is important to provide comprehensive support to ensure the well-being of both the mother and the infant and this will b...

Alkali Element Modification of Glucose Molecules as a Method to Dissolve Cancer Cells | Chapter 12 | New Visions in Medicine and Medical Science Vol. 4

  The present study highlights about alkali element modification of glucose molecules as a method to dissolve cancer cells. The central regulation of the mechanisms governing cell proliferation has little effect on cancer cells. Cancer cells are entirely independent of the central command and divide and proliferate on their own, making it challenging to activate their response mechanism. Precisely, this is the reason why they are at risk to the health of humans and/or any biological entities. Instead of trying to reconnect the central command of the growth control mechanism to cancer cells that are already out of the range, we present a method of using the cancer cell’s own irresponsive and uncontrolled growth mechanism to their disadvantage and destroy the cancer cells. We found that this is achievable in an atomic/molecular level study of the glucose molecule, which is the primary food source used for growth and energy generation by all cells in the body, including the cancer cel...
