Prospective feasibility study of AMIE conversational diagnostic AI published in The Lancet
BIDMC, ARISE and Google have published a prospective study in The Lancet on the AMIE conversational diagnostic AI used in ambulatory primary care. The system pre-screened patients at a Boston hospital, and the Lancet study also suggested that the patient–physician relationship could improve.
Who is affected and how
- doctor
- The AI can take the medical history before the visit, which affects the length and structure of the appointment.
- hospital manager
- A pre-screening chatbot could affect how outpatient care and the patient pathway are organised.
- health IT
- Integrating conversational diagnostic systems into patient intake is a new task.
