Artificial intelligence and machine learning in healthcare apply computational methods to clinical and biomedical data to support diagnosis, treatment planning, and health system operations. Common applications include medical image analysis using convolutional neural networks to detect tumors, fractures, and other abnormalities in radiology and pathology images; predictive models that estimate patient risk for readmission, sepsis, or disease progression from electronic health records; natural language processing for extracting information from clinical notes; and drug discovery models that predict molecular properties and candidate compounds. Regulatory activity reflects this growth: the FDA had authorized more than 1,300 AI-enabled medical devices by December 2025, with a record 295 cleared that year alone. Deploying AI in clinical settings raises distinct requirements around model interpretability for clinician trust, validation across diverse patient populations, and integration with existing hospital information systems. As an open-access healthcare AI journal, IJACSA publishes research on AI and machine learning models in healthcare, their clinical validation, and applied systems for diagnostic support and patient monitoring.
