Smarter diagnosis and prognosis of a disease has obvious benefits to patients and healthcare providers alike. A team from Cardiff University believes that artificial intelligence can play a big role in doing just that. In a recently published study, the team describes how AI can help improve risk assessments for patients with cardiovascular disease in an efficient manner that requires neither expertise or human interaction.
"If we can refine these methods, they will allow us to determine much earlier those people who require preventative measures. This will extend people's lives and conserve NHS resources," the researchers explain.
