The Microsoft AI team shares research that demonstrates how AI can sequentially investigate and solve medicine’s most complex diagnostic challenges—cases that expert physicians struggle to answer.
Benchmarked against real-world case records published each week in the New England Journal of Medicine, we show that the Microsoft AI Diagnostic Orchestrator (MAI-DxO) correctly diagnoses up to 85% of NEJM case proceedings, a rate more than four times higher than a group of experienced physicians. MAI-DxO also gets to the correct diagnosis more cost-effectively than physicians.
Only if you don’t have the critical thinking to understand how information management is a significant problem and barrier to medical care.
Being able to research and find material relevant to a patient’s problem is an arduous task that often is too high a barrier for doctors to invest in given their regular workloads.
Which leads to a reduction in effective care.
By providing a more efficient and effective way to dig up information that saves a ton of time and improves care.
It’s still up to the doctor to evaluate that information, but now they’re not slogging away trying to find it.
