Research on Development and Challenges of Chinese Medical Artificial Intelligence

Medical artificial intelligence is the focus of the research and development of China“s current health information Medical artificial intelligence can transform and upgrade modern medical service industry as well as promoting the innovation and development of health industry constantly. In July 2017, the State Council of China issued the “New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan”, which proposed to promote the application of the new modes and new methods of artificial intelligence treatment in smart health care and establish smart medical system. Meanwhile, the plan proposed to comprehensively improve the intelligence level of health industry, including the development of human-machine coordination surgical robots, intelligence diagnosis and treatment, the R&D of a wearable and bicomppatible physiological monitoring system and the R&D of programs on human computer collaborative clinical intelligent diagnosis and treatment, so as to realize the intelligence image recognition, pathological classification and intelligent multidisciplinary consultation, promote intelligent medical supervision and strengthen epidemiological intelligence surveillance and prevention. However, the development of China“s medical artificial intelligence technology will also bring both new opportunities and new challenges. This essay trends to analyze how to deal with the problems and risks that medical artificial intelligence may bring about and how to ensure its development in a safe and controllable way based on the growing trend and usage of medical artificial intelligence in China.
