Will the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) displace the need for traditional physicians and clinicians? It’s a potent question—and one that often sits on the periphery whenever there are discussions around the application of AI within healthcare, and healthcare and HPC. It’s a question that we’ll seek to answer as we explore human health and the impact of AI, its challenges and its future potential.

A technology with the capacity to adapt, solve problems and simulate human intelligence, AI could be the answer to some of today’s fundamental healthcare challenges. These challenges include an aging population, unsustainable healthcare costs and a lack of resources.

This guide will explore the specific applications of AI and its subclasses of machine and deep learning in healthcare. We’ll take a look at the challenges we face in healthcare and HPC, the technologies on hand to meet those challenges and the resources and expertise available. We’ll present case studies on how AI is assisting the medical profession in fighting cancer, identifying genetic mutations, improving diagnostics and helping people with profound vision loss.

This guide is essential reading for anyone looking to explore or expand on the use of AI within healthcare.
