The Continuing Education Unit at the College of Science for Women at the University of Baghdad organized a scientific workshop entitled (Advanced Artificial Intelligence in Health Care) presented by teacher Dr. Safa Sami Abdul-Jabbar.
The workshop aimed to introduce the concept of advanced artificial intelligence in healthcare, which has become an essential part of modern developments in this field, as it contributes to improving the quality of healthcare, accelerating medical diagnoses, and providing personalized treatments, as artificial intelligence is used to analyze medical images such as X-rays and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to identify diseases such as cancer and heart disease, and artificial intelligence contributes to customizing treatments based on patient data and genetic analysis, which helps in choosing the most effective treatment.
For each patient, the workshop stressed the possibility of predicting the risks of diseases, such as diabetes or strokes and providing recommendations for prevention. The workshop also touched on robots supported by artificial intelligence to help surgeons perform accurate and advanced operations, which contributes to reducing errors and improving patient outcomes. As well as employing artificial intelligence in managing big data, improving the internal processes of hospitals, such as scheduling appointments, managing inventory, and self-support for patients such as virtual assistants to follow up on their health status, providing medical and psychological advice, and reminding them of medicines. In conclusion, it was emphasized that this technology contributes to providing health care, reducing costs, and improving the accuracy of treatment, but it is not a substitute for going to the doctor and periodic follow-up.
