The research team of Specially Appointed Associate Professor Kazuya Fujihara and Professor Hirohito Sone of the Department of Hematology, Endocrinology and Metabolism, Niigata University Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, developed an artificial intelligence (AI) system that can make more professional decisions than general physicians (non-specialists) in specific life-threatening medical situations through machine-learning of large-scale data on the treatments previously performed by specialists.
The results of the research were published in the international journal JMIR Medical Informatics on January 27, 2021.
- This is the first study to demonstrate that AI can make more professional decisions than non-specialists in specific life-threatening situations.
