Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Health Sector

 

Machine Learning and especially Artificial Intelligence can give the medical and healthcare sector a massive boost. Digitalization could transform healthcare systems to become more sustainable and cheaper, faster, and more effective. It could even win us the battle against diseases like AIDS or Ebola or lead to healthier individuals and communities.

It is important to note that healthcare needs to shift to be more technology-intensive amid this pandemic now more than ever, and the healthcare industry's current state will allow AI to thrive once integrated. 




Besides Artificial Intelligence, the most prevalent technologies used in the healthcare sector include virtual reality, augmented reality, healthcare trackers, genome sequence, medical tricorder, nanotechnology, robotics, and 3-D printing. All these accounts for machine learning in the healthcare sector would almost certainly lead to cost reduction and increased time efficiency. 

For instance, the conventional drug development process is time-consuming and expensive. However, the introduction of Artificial Intelligence in drug development could completely revolutionize the process and make it cheaper and faster. Also, artificial intelligence can deduce results based on the large amounts of electronically collected data.  

(Drug discovery development and preclinical research alone can take as long as 6 years, making the whole process of drug development really long.)

A Machine Learning in Healthcare SWOT Analysis

Image
  Photo by National Cancer Institute on Unsplash Machine Learning is making sweeping improvements to many industries, healthcare being one of them.  The impact ML can have on a sector or industry is as unique as the industry itself. Pharmacology is able to refine products by miniscule amounts to ensure quality and safety. The layer of coating that covers pill tablets is being reevaluated for accuracy by ML's capacity to find novel patterns in vast amounts of data. Resource management in hospitals is able to track inventory in real-time, giving physicians updates on what supplies are available. This is also helping in streamline the patient intake process. Radiologists are using AI to help identify chronic pulmonary hypertension faster using ML to find new pattern indicators. Personalized medicine, or precision medicine, is using ML to create treatment plans specific to a patient with increasing accuracy using predictive analysis.  So where does this leave business managers?

Machine Learning in Pharmaceutical Research and Development

Image
Lets look at the Pharmaceutical Industry for a minute...  Its a complex and competitive world out there for a multitude of reasons: There are time limits on patented treatments, customers have more bargaining power, and we are moving on to tackle more complex diseases. The more complex the disease, the more complex the research and development (R&D) phase for treatments. The R&D pipeline for treatments of rare, chronic, degenerative diseases is lengthy and costly, with many false starts and do-overs involved. How does it work? A simplified version is that researchers test the interaction of different molecules to gauge is a combination would be effective in killing the molecules of the disease in question. The process is traditionally done by human researchers using vast amounts of data about the properties of molecules to see the interaction between multiple molecules, and then their interaction with the disease.  As you can guess, its an extremely time consuming and costly pr

Health care is the center of our world right now. But it has been the center of many people's world for decades. If you work in the Pharmaceutical industry you know how much money, resources, and time is constantly being utilized by the field. Resources are still stretched thin across the Research and Development sector, the sector responsible for finding new drugs to fight diseases.  The drug R&D pipeline is costing companies and investors more and more financially, but it is paying off.  There has also been a steady increase in drugs discovered and being investigated. Lets take a look at the Global Trends in Big Pharma...   Curious to know more?  We got the data needed to make these charts from Evaluate and PharmaExec !  Follow the links below..
