AI systems are integrated into the world of medicine and can be found in operating rooms, patient diagnostic systems, innovative software for managing medical centers and specialist clinics, imaging institutes, and the computer systems of companies engaged in the development and research of various drugs.
One of the leading companies in the field of artificial intelligence in medicine is Google, which recently launched an AI service for medicine known as MedLM.
Google is one of the world’s leading technology companies, and in recent years the company has invested considerable resources in developing AI for a wide range of fields, including medicine. In June 2023, Google published a detailed article about MedLM – an artificial intelligence model that is considered a powerful tool for various medical uses.
This is a machine learning-based language model, which has undergone thorough and comprehensive training based on huge databases of texts, information, and medical code. The article presents, among other things, the advanced capabilities of AI for medical uses.
An AI model created for the world of medicine
Google is considered a key player in AI, and among other things specializes in developing an Ai model for the field of medicine.
In June 2023, Google introduced the AI model, MedLM, which is capable of performing many different tasks in the field of medicine, such as:
Diagnosis of diseases and health problems
Google’s new model can easily analyze the results of the imaging tests; this includes the results of MRI and CT tests, and the tool can identify abnormal findings that may indicate one disease or another. It should be noted that in the article Google has published, the AI tool, MedLM, was able to identify a cancerous tumor with an accuracy of 96% (by interpretation of MRI images). In addition, the company claimed in the article that the new tool was able to tailor the appropriate treatment for heart patients with an accuracy of 88%.
Recommendations for the application of the right treatment
Google’s AI model knows how to analyze the patient’s health data, and this includes monitoring and analyzing medical history, blood tests, and results of a variety of other tests. The tool interprets the medical data and helps doctors tailor the correct treatment that is optimal for the patient.
An effective and advanced tool for medical research
Google’s new model is able to analyze extensive medical information, and is able to identify new trends, and help with the development of innovative treatments for various departments and health conditions.
How is MedLM expected to impact the world of medicine?
Many people use Google’s search engine to read information about various diseases and health conditions, and now the tech giant is taking the subject a few steps further. In recent years, Google has introduced a number of advanced tools based on AI in medicine, for example, MedPaLM, and the company has developed a number of additional AI-based tools in the field of medicine.
Undoubtedly, the new MedLM model, which is still under development, is a high-quality and powerful tool that is expected to impact medicine in the following manner:
By improving the ability to diagnose diseases at an early stage
Google’s new model provides impressive and very high capabilities for diagnosing diseases at an early stage, so doctors can offer effective and optimal treatment, thereby saving lives.
Personalized treatment recommendations
The AI model for medicine is a useful and powerful tool since it can help doctors identify trends and tailor the right treatment to the patient, i.e., a personalized treatment based on effective analysis of medical data, including interpretation of imaging results and other tests.
Drug development and treatment methods
The new model is a particularly effective tool for researchers and is able to identify trends and develop treatments and cures for various diseases.
Meanwhile, the AI model, MedLM, has additional benefits to medicine. This includes, for example, performing medical tasks instead of doctors. This saves both time and costs, improving the service to patients and providing up-to-date information; it is also expected to improve patients’ health and quality of life.
In summary, Google is developing and promoting the use of AI in the field of medicine. The company has launched a number of advanced models that already help medical teams in Israel and worldwide, and the use of the advanced model is currently intended for customers based in the US and developers around the world.
