characterized by empathy, ethical judgment, and
experience, is indispensable. AI’s role in healthcare is to
support professionals by providing diagnostic suggestions
and real-time insights. However, ethical concerns
surrounding data privacy, algorithmic biases, and patient
consent must be addressed to ensure AI’s responsible and
effective use in personalized medicine. AI is reshaping the

8.1. Crucial AI contributions in medical diagnostics
DL, powered by ANNs, has shown the most substantial
impact in medical diagnostics. Enhanced computational
resources, the availability of large, labeled datasets, and
accessible frameworks have propelled the success of DL,
particularly in medical imaging. The turning point for DL Figure 3. Challenges of AI in medical diagnostics
