Another key focus was precision medicine and personalised healthcare. Innovations in genomics, molecular diagnostics, and targeted therapies highlighted the shift towards more personalised and tailored treatment approaches. Through the integration of genomic data and advanced analytics, healthcare providers of the future could develop customised treatment plans that are specifically tailored to each patient’s unique genetic makeup, leading to better treatment outcomes and improved patient satisfaction.

However, through discussion panels other opinions raise valid concerns about the reliability and accuracy of AI in healthcare. Unlike human professionals who possess years of training and experience, AI systems are only as good as the data they are trained on and the algorithms they employ. Inaccurate or biased data can lead to erroneous conclusions, potentially resulting in misdiagnoses, inappropriate treatments, and patient harm. Moreover, the black-box nature of some AI algorithms makes it challenging to understand how decisions are reached, further complicating accountability and transparency in healthcare delivery.

Moreover, Arab Health 2024 served as a platform for the exploration of such innovation,ย  medical devices and technologies. From wearable health monitors to robotic surgical systems, exhibitors presented a wide range of cutting-edge devices designed to improve patient care and enhance clinical workflows.ย
