In addition to the much-discussed potential in diagnostics, AI-based interactive systems can very effectively support processes in hospitals and comparable healthcare facilities and thus contribute to the improvement of medical, organizational and administrative processes. The aim of the projects in this funding measure is to research and develop AI-based assistance systems that lead to quantifiable and measurable improvements in clinical processes.
