Google Cloud says HIMSS20 attendees should eye AI, interoperability and security

There will be many technologies, strategies and trends discussed at HIMSS20 in March. But which are most important? Which deserve the time and attention of healthcare CIOs and other leaders? The evolving role of AI in healthcare is sure to be an important topic on people’s minds at HIMSS20, Corkery stated. “The past few years have seen some incredible demonstrations of the power of and potential for AI in healthcare  for example, breast cancer detection and diabetic retinopathy detection,” he said. “As well as a lot of discussion around how AI will be used, integrated and regulated as part of clinical practice.” As an “AI-first” organization, Google has significantly transformed the way it works through AI and brings this expertise to healthcare, he said. As part of that effort, Google is focusing heavily on addressing some of the key requirements necessary for success with AI, he added.
