With its ability to accurately predict diseases at early stages, artificial intelligence (AI) plays an increasingly important role in today’s healthcare industry. The global AI-based healthcare solutions market size is expected to reach USD 208 billion by 2030 (Source: Research and Markets). However, 46% of clinicians report a shortage of people with AI-implementation skills in their organization (Source: World Economic Forum). MIT xPRO’s AI in Healthcare: Fundamentals and Applications program is designed to help healthcare leaders like you understand AI technologies and ways of leveraging them to develop innovative solutions that make a difference in patient treatment.
