Introduction to AI in Medicine
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is set to transform traditional medicine significantly. The World Health Organization (WHO), International Telecommunication Union (ITU), and World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) recently released a technical brief outlining this transformation. With advances in technology, AI is expected to enhance the practice of traditional complementary and integrative medicine (TCIM).
The global TCIM market is projected to reach $600 billion by 2025. This growth highlights the increasing importance of integrating AI into healthcare practices. The organizations involved emphasize that AI can improve diagnostics, treatment personalization, and patient care. By leveraging data, AI can assist practitioners in making more informed decisions, thus enhancing the overall effectiveness of traditional medicine.
The Future of AI in Healthcare
As AI continues to evolve, its role in traditional medicine will become even more prominent. The collaboration between health organizations signals a significant shift towards a more data-driven approach in healthcare. This integration not only promises enhanced patient outcomes but also positions traditional medicine to thrive in a modern healthcare landscape.
