A Medico-Legal Consideration On The Use Of Ai (Artificial Intelligence) In Medicine

The use of AI in the medical field has been used by medical researchers in late 1960’s and early 1970’s during the expansion of biomedical applications of AI. The fast development of AI technology means that the medical field must evolve to have positive impact on the use of AI in the medical field. Although AI and medicine are different areas, both are connected to one another especially with significant developments that use AI, for instance in medical devices in healthcare. For example, technological systems can use sophisticated algorithms which have been incorporated into AI to diagnose conditions and make decisions much quicker than conventional methods. This paper considers to what extent AI can contribute and benefit medicine and what are the challenges and obstacles on the use of AI in this field. This paper also discusses how AI use in the medicine in such ways as diagnosis and treatment as well as decision making. Finally, based on the developments and issues raised, the legal implications will be explored and discussed.
