AI-powered strategies for early detection and prevention of severe diseases
Abstract
The average life expectancy has more than doubled over the 20th century, primarily due to dramatic reductions in the mortality rates of most diseases and conditions. Incremental improvements in surgical techniques have allowed for more complex interventions and have saved millions of lives. The development of pharmaceutical agents has not only provided cures but also alleviated the human condition and improved quality of life. Moreover, deep brain stimulation has meaningfully improved the lives of millions of people with central nervous system disorders. As we continue to enjoy the benefits of technology in healthcare, we are increasingly focusing on early diagnostic technologies, primarily to identify disease before it becomes clinically apparent and to identify health problems at the earliest point of intervention or treatment. Although we are in an era of digital integration for health promotion, disease prevention, and geriatric care, this integration is mostly used to mitigate and prevent disease, but there are challenges. It is important that we exploit the enormous potential of new and reproductive innovation in the modern digital approaches we use today.
