Clin Lab Med. 2023 Mar;43(1):71-86. doi: 10.1016/j.cll.2022.09.006. Epub 2023 Jan 9.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming an indispensable tool to augment decision making in different health care settings and by various members of the patient pathway, including the patient. AI provides the ability to optimize data to bring clinical decision support for clinicians and laboratorians and/or empower patients to actively participate in their own health care. Though there are many examples of AI in health care, the exact role of AI and digital health solutions is still taking shape. Although AI will not replace the clinician, those who do not adopt AI may in time, be left behind.

Keywords: Artificial intelligence; Clinical algorithms; Clinical decision support; Digital diagnostics; Digital health care innovation; Digital health solutions.
