New Delhi: Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are witnessing increasing adoption in the Indian healthcare setting. With a surge in non-communicable diseases and the increasing number of aging population in the country, the overall burden of disease management has been increasing year-on-year and to manage that, the government, the healthcare professionals and the healthcare institutions are looking for innovative ways. Studies have shown that deep learning algorithms have given better insights to clinicians in predicting prognosis and future events in patients.
