ZuluAccording to an article from Healthcare Asia Magazine, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is making significant inroads into the dental industry. Suen Ming Lee, CEO of Thomson Medical Singapore, revealed that he has been “engaging with a private dental group who uses AI to look at X-rays of teeth, which aids in mapping out potential treatment plans.”
“I would say AI is very exciting. It’s here to stay. It is there for us to embrace it and to make the best use of it for everyone’s benefit,” Suen stated during a panel discussion at the 2024 Healthcare Asia Summit in Singapore.
AI-Powered Patient Monitoring
The article highlights the growing adoption of AI in healthcare, with executives praising its potential to improve patient outcomes. Yong Yih Ming, COO of IHH Healthcare Singapore and CEO of Mount Elizabeth Hospital, asserted that AI is a tool that enhances treatment outcomes.
“We have deployed in IHH hospitals the AI to detect the human body so that any time a patient is likely to fall, the nurses can respond to it,” Yong explained, emphasizing how AI has improved patient monitoring and reduced falls in their hospitals.
Roberto Muñoz, President and CEO of The Medical City Clinic in the Philippines, offered a philosophical perspective on AI’s role in healthcare. He envisions AI as a tool to make healthcare “an even more human experience for all that participate in it and to make it less impersonal.”
“We always look at AI as a tool, not a substitute, and there is no more human activity than healthcare,” Muñoz stated during the summit.
AI-Driven Symptom Checkers and Virtual Assistants
Dr. Anindita Santosa, a consultant at Changi General Hospital, highlighted the potential of AI-powered chatbots and mobile apps to engage individuals about their health concerns and generate awareness.
“All of us in this room have looked up our symptoms and wondered what it’s all about, and then you take your next course of action depending on where you land,” Santosa said, suggesting the transformative potential of AI-guided symptom checkers and virtual health assistants.
