The driving force behind Artificial Intelligence (AI) is its potential to accelerate human progress and enhance our experiences in all areas of our lives, and in no area is this more significant than healthcare.
The healthcare sector has seen unbelievable progress in the last decade, including the rapid, cross-border innovation that saw us through the pandemic. However, factors including increased population density, rising healthcare costs, and pressures on the NHS mean that we continue to face increased challenges to our health. With heightened patient expectations and intense pressure on medical staff and providers, AI and HPC can help ease the strain by improving patient care, eliminating manual tasks, and delivering better outcomes.
Fortunately, we are well-positioned to meet these challenges facing healthcare in the UK today. The UK Government has pledged to leverage AI solutions across hospitals to facilitate diagnoses and admission for treatment. Advances in genomics, bioinformatics, microscopy, medical imaging, and many other areas have created a data avalanche. If captured and analysed correctly, this data can optimise productivity, foster collaboration, and enhance decision-making, ultimately boosting clinical and research results and significantly improving patient outcomes through AI.
Tariq Hussain, Head of UK Public Sales, Dell Technologies, recently contributed to AI Journal about this topic. Advanced computing technologies, like AI algorithms running on high-performance computing (HPC) systems, are key to unlocking the true value of medical data, which will ultimately save lives and improve overall health.
