The brain scans look unambiguous. After 18 months of treatment, the amyloid plaques that riddle the brains of early Alzheimer’s patients are visibly reduced, sometimes dramatically so. The drug is doing exactly what it was designed to do: hunting down those sticky protein deposits and clearing them away. So why aren’t the patients getting better? … Read more
In hospitals where seconds matter, physicians often face a data paradox: vast electronic records but little time to extract meaning. Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have now developed an artificial intelligence system that transforms this flood of information into structured insight. The tool, called InfEHR, interprets how clinical events relate … Read more
Artificial intelligence chatbots like ChatGPT are being widely used in healthcare, but a new study warns they may be dangerously susceptible to medical misinformation. Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai found that leading AI models often repeat or even elaborate on false clinical details embedded in user questions, raising serious safety … Read more
A team of researchers at the University of California San Diego has developed a new artificial intelligence tool that can learn to read medical images using only a fraction of the data typically required. The system, called GenSeg, dramatically cuts down the amount of expert-labeled scans needed to train diagnostic models, reducing data demands by … Read more
