Applications of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Therapeutics in Clinical Medicine

Dear Colleagues,

Artificial intelligence (AI) has initiated a paradigm change in healthcare, powered by the increasing availability of healthcare data and the rapid evolution of analytic techniques. It is expanding its footprint in clinical systems including databases, image analysis, evidence-based real-time clinical decision support, and robotics.

Meanwhile, digital therapies are clinically validated computer programs, used in the prevention, treatment, and management of various diseases and disorders, promoting the empowerment of patients and/or their caregivers and facilitating decision making for health professionals. They incorporate advanced technologies (AI, biometric sensors, IoT, virtual reality, augmented reality, etc.), rigorously respecting interoperability and data privacy, and can be integrated into different devices (mobile phones, tablets, smart watches, virtual reality glasses, desktop computers, or others).

The topics of the interest in this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, AI applied to diagnostics and therapeutics, digital therapies (types, utility, regulation, etc.), and telemedicine in clinical medicine.
