Artificial intelligence in health, explained clearly.

What AI health apps and devices can do, where they fail, and how to use them responsibly. A bilingual portal for the public, students, nurses, doctors and researchers.

Sections

• Diagnostics & imaging — Algorithms that read images, signals and tests alongside the clinician. What they have become good at, where they fail, and what that means for a diagnosis you are given.
• Clinical support — Documentation, bedside decisions and training. Where AI gives clinicians time back, where it introduces new errors, and what has to be learned on top.
• AI for patients — Symptom apps, wearables, mental health assistants. What is worth installing, what is worth ignoring, and what is not attempted in an emergency.
• Regulation & ethics — Medical device, AI Act, GDPR: three overlapping regimes. What they mean in practice — for a patient, a clinician, a developer.
