(WXYZ) — Artificial Intelligence is revolutionizing the international medical field and we expect that the role of Artificial Intelligence in our hospitals will continue to expand in the near future.
At the moment, medical experts agree that intelligence is most closely related to radiology, with the Detroit Medical Center saying AI has profoundly changed how stroke patients are diagnosed and intervened.
Herve Djoundi, a master’s student studying artificial intelligence, said:
Djoundi grew up in Cameroon, Africa, where access to medical facilities and doctors was very limited.
Because of this, he spent his adolescence watching him fall ill for months while his family and friends waited for help.
“Since we found that liver disease is the number one cause of cancer in Cameroon, we decided to start investigating this issue,” said Djoundi.
Djoundi, currently a master’s degree student in artificial intelligence at Lawrence Institute of Technology, is working on AI machine learning.
How Teachable Machines Work
He plans to use artificial intelligence to diagnose African patients earlier and save their lives.
“If you catch the disease early, you can get treatment and your liver can recover, but if you don’t know it, you’ll end up with liver failure,” he said.
“Machine learning” is a type of AI used in many hospitals around the world.
The free website Teachable Machine shows the basics of how it works.
In minutes, the AI can learn the difference between my water bottle with and without sticky notes.
Similarly, AI can learn to detect anomalies in the human body.
Rudolph Valenti, Chief Medical Officer, DMC & Children’s Hospital in Michigan, said:

At the Detroit Medical Center and Children’s Hospital, the chief medical officer told 7 Action News that AI’s biggest role is in diagnosing and prompting intervention for stroke patients, saving lives.
Valenti says: “AI tools are not going to replace doctors and nurses, but they basically just make doctors more efficient and improve their communication, enable more timely diagnoses, and do our jobs better. is.”
This is exactly how Djoundi is working to diagnose liver disease more quickly.
DMC is also working to extend AI to detect internal hemorrhages and potentially fatal blood clots in the brain earlier.
At this moment, AI is revolutionizing the world of medicine. The future is here.
“Honestly, I think the limits of AI are limitless.
