  • Manual práctico de inteligencia artificial en entornos sanitarios

    • 3rd Edition
    • Juan José Beunza Nuin + 3 more
    • Spanish
    La incorporación de la inteligencia artificial (IA) a los entornos sanitarios está transformando la asistencia, la investigación y la gestión clínicas. La implantación de algoritmos para apoyo predictivo, pronóstico y diagnóstico se sustenta en un ecosistema tecnológico que integra el análisis de grandes volúmenes de datos, la computación en la nube, la conectividad de dispositivos (internet of things), la sensorización y la gestión de información en tiempo real. En el centro de esta transformación se sitúa el aprendizaje automático y, más recientemente, la IA generativa y los agentes de IA. Esta tercera edición revisa y actualiza los conocimientos en este campo de evolución vertiginosa, pero manteniendo el vocabulario claro y accesible y el enfoque práctico de ediciones anteriores. También aborda y contextualiza la IA generativa -capaz de producir y transformar texto, imágenes y otros contenidos- y los agentes de IA -que pueden planificar y ejecutar tareas en flujos de trabajo definidos-. Ambas herramientas amplían notablemente las posibilidades de interacción y automatización en el ámbito clínico. El objetivo es facilitar una comprensión sólida de los fundamentos y las aplicaciones actuales y futuras de la IA a los profesionales sanitarios y de otras áreas tecnológicas (ingeniería informática y biomédica) que deseen adquirir conocimientos para evaluar soluciones, participar en proyectos de implementación y utilizar herramientas de apoyo con rigor y seguridad, y a los estudiantes de Ciencias de la Salud interesados en unas competencias que serán imprescindibles en su práctica futura.
