Here is a summary of the article from WBUR’s CommonHealth newsletter in an unordered list with 5 key points:<\/p>\n

– This excerpt highlights the use of AI tools in healthcare, focusing on how these technologies are transforming diagnostic and treatment processes.
\n– Dr. Sam Ash at South Shore Hospital utilizes OpenEvidence, a generative AI platform for doctors, to assist in diagnosing patients and checking the levels of medications in blood to determine if intensive treatment is necessary.
\n– AI scribes are increasingly used by Massachusetts doctors to take notes during patient visits, recording, transcribing, and summarizing appointments, and also assist in billing processes.
\n– An algorithm developed by MIT and Massachusetts General Hospital can predict breast cancer risks by analyzing mammogram images, potentially allowing for earlier detection and intervention.
\n– AI is also being incorporated into mental health support, with some clinicians using AI chatbots trained on therapeutic practices, while discussing the complexities and implications with their clients.
