Recent studies suggest that AI and robotic systems have huge potential in the medical field, demonstrating high accuracy for diagnostics and conducting safer surgical interventions.
Prospects of AI in Medicine
By 2025, large language models (LLMs) are expected to provide more accurate diagnoses than human doctors. A study conducted at Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine showed triage accuracy ranging from 66.5% to 98%. Similar conclusions were confirmed by a recent study at Oxford Academic, stating that leading LLMs demonstrate remarkable diagnostic accuracy.
AI provides access to vast amounts of medical information, allowing models to accumulate experience that exceeds that of all doctors combined.
Development of Surgical Robotics
The surgical robotics market is projected to reach $7.42 billion by 2030 according to Grand View Research. The first wave of robotic systems is likely to focus on the implementation of non-invasive treatment methods. For instance, Accuray develops stereotactic radiosurgery systems that allow for precise targeting of tumor formations.
Leading Companies in Surgical Technologies
Leading companies in the field of surgical robotics include Accuray, Siemens Healthineers, and Intuitive Surgical. Each of these companies is actively developing technologies that enhance surgical outcomes.
Intuitive Surgical, for example, successfully integrates AI into its systems, providing the company with a competitive edge. The achievements of these organizations indicate the rapid advancement of technologies and high rates of AI integration into medicine.
The advancement of artificial intelligence and surgical robotics opens new avenues for diagnostics and treatment, transforming approaches to surgical intervention and improving its safety and efficiency.
