AI has proved to be a boon for doctors. Let us know how this Artificial Intelligence can help in treatment? Let us know which cancer therapy is best for treatment. This AI will not replace doctors in treating cancer, but will help them in treating cancer patients. AI keeps many health records like pathology, radiology and clinical details. After which the patient’s genomics is uploaded to the system. Data of such patients is kept. Along with viewing the history of cancer, it also shows the results of treatment.
