Digital healthcare is one of the fastest growing industries in the global healthcare market, with AI as a key tool in the development of smart health. AI can be deployed in just about any facet or activity of the health industry, from clinical decision-making and public health, to biomedical research and drug development, to health system administration and service redesign.

The integration of AI technologies is recognized within the EU as crucial in controlling and reducing the costs of health services and the long-term sustainability of health systems.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
