AI in Healthcare - Edition 2 (eBook)

Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare (AI) is a practical, accessible guide to how artificial intelligence is changing medicine and what responsible use requires.

AI is already shaping diagnosis, treatment, surgery, and clinical decision-making. The real question is no longer whether it belongs in healthcare, but how it can be used safely and effectively, under proper clinical oversight.

Written in clear, non-technical language, this book explains the core ideas behind modern AI and shows where it can improve care, where it can fail, and what clinicians, managers, and healthcare leaders must do to deploy it responsibly.

This expanded second edition adds expert insight and real-world examples, linking the technology to the operational reality of healthcare. It examines how AI systems are evaluated, procured, validated, integrated into workflows, monitored over time, and kept aligned with safety, privacy, and clinical standards.

For clinicians, managers, students, and decision-makers, Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare (AI) offers a clear, grounded understanding of what AI can do, where its limits lie, and what responsible implementation demands.
