Artificial intelligence (AI) is already influencing work and everyday life and accompanies people in completing work tasks. In healthcare, AI is considered a key technology and a driver of progress and employment. New algorithms are helping AI to become a game changer in the healthcare market. Conventional treatment methods in the diagnostics and in the therapy of patients are changing. Medical and nursing staff should be supported and relieved through the use of AI. Artificial intelligence promises great benefits for individuals and companies. However, the social, financial, technical and legal framework conditions must also be taken into account. Despite the many possibilities, the use of artificial intelligence in personal data and in certain business models must be critically examined and reflected upon.

This edited work provides an overview of current – sometimes controversial – topics from theory, research, transfer and practice. In 43 contributions, 82 renowned authors and experts present their knowledge, insights, experiences and assessments. Solution approaches and problem areas in the use of artificial intelligence in healthcare are shown. Through a clear clustering and classification of the book contributions in subject-related overviews, the work is suitable for beginners as well as for practitioners and scientists.
