Artificial Intelligence in Medicine

This book provides a structured and analytical guide to the use of artificial intelligence in medicine. Covering all areas within medicine, the chapters give a systemic review of the history, scientific foundations, present advances, potential trends, and future challenges of artificial intelligence within a healthcare setting.

Artificial Intelligence in Medicine aims to give readers the required knowledge to apply artificial intelligence to clinical practice. The book is relevant to medical students, specialist doctors, and researchers whose work will be affected by artificial intelligence.

Dr Niklas Lidströmer - Karolinska Institute, MD, MSc, Specialist Physician, Postgraduate researcher in AI in Medicine, Senior Advisor in Medical Investments for investment companies, AI entrepreneur and CEO of an AI powered medical platform, former Head of Medical AI at a row of med-tech companies, and also co-leader of a handful of successful medical startups.
His experience also encompasses wide-spread global clinical work during over twenty years, in eight countries and in many different regions of these. He started with a master thesis in Global Medicine in 1996-1998, followed by clinical work all over the world and as a circumnavigating maritime doctor.
His global working experience, fluency in nearly ten languages, practical familiarization with AI in the medical and pharmaceutical industries and clinical specialist competence in general medicine, has produced a deep interest for translational and educational aspects of artificial intelligence in medicine.Dr Niklas Lidströmer is devoutly focused on bestowing the world with this major reference work in artificial intelligence in medicine.
