Artificial Intelligence-Based Medical Sensors for Healthcare System

Abstract

The aging population and the prevalence of infectious diseases have impacted the traditional medical order, significantly increasing the burden on healthcare and adversely affecting the socio-economic system. Medical sensors based on artificial intelligence (AI) provide new ideas for modern medical data collection to monitor the health status of individuals and environmental changes. Meanwhile, with the aid of AI algorithms, the big data processing capabilities of sensor systems have been greatly improved, further realizing early predictions and timely diagnoses. In this paper, a brief overview is offered on the development status of AI-enabled medical sensors for off-body detection, near-body monitoring, disease prediction, and clinical decision support system, and the ongoing challenges and future prospects to move from concept to implementation are discussed. In the foreseeable future, breakthroughs in the combination of medical sensors and AI algorithms are expected to pave the way for early detection and clinical decision support and improve the accuracy and efficiency for disease diagnosis.
