The genAI tools are known for its capability to produce complex, creative, and contextually relevant output. Nevertheless, the deployment of genAI models in healthcare should be accompanied appropriate and rigorous performance evaluation tools. In this rapid communication, we emphasizes the urgent need to develop a “Generative AIQ Test” as a novel tailored tool for comprehensive benchmarking of genAI models against multiple human-like intelligence attributes. A preliminary framework is proposed in this communication. This framework incorporates miscellaneous performance metrics including accuracy, diversity, novelty, and consistency. These metrics were considered critical in the evaluation of genAI models that might be utilized to generate diagnostic recommendations, treatment plans, and patient interaction suggestions. This communication also highlights the importance of orchestrated collaboration to construct robust and well-annotated benchmarking datasets to capture the complexity of diverse medical scenarios and patient demographics. This communication suggests an approach aiming to ensure that genAI models are effective, equitable, and transparent. To maximize the potential of genAI models in healthcare, it is important to establish rigorous, dynamic standards for its benchmarking. Consequently, this approach can help to improve clinical decision-making with enhancement in patient care, which will enhance the reliability of genAI applications in healthcare.</p>2024-07-02T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Malik Sallam, Roaa Khalil, Mohammed Sallamhttps://mesopotamian.press/journals/index.php/MJAIH/article/view/224Measuring the Effectiveness of AI Tools in Clinical Research and Writing: A Case Study in Healthcare2023-12-20T17:24:45+00:00Sani Salisusani.salisu@fud.edu.ngOsamah Mohammed Alyasiriosama.alyasiri@atu.edu.iqHussain A.

However, in the past two years, the corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has a broad range and, in a limited percentage of people, a notable effect on the lungs. In the past, the fuzzy logic method has been used to classify lung disease prediction, but it has faced challenges such as difficulties in identifying segmented regions and output inaccuracies. To solve the issue Convolutional neural networks are used in machine learning to predict lung condition. The preprocessing based weighted average filter gives greater weight to the central value, making its contribution more significant than that of other values and can regulate the degree of image blurring. The process of segmenting based on region split and merge techniques involves separating one or more areas or entities in an image according to a size of m by n at one level of a threshold value. This segmented in multiple sub-regions of the same size, indicating a fundamental representational structure, from that Image classification using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is a type of neural network specifically designed to extract distinct characteristics from segmented data. They are often used in tasks such as lung disease prediction and recognition due to their ability to identify intricate details in clustered data. The approach was evaluated using the MATLAB tool, a novel CNN with multiple image processing technique in our experiment to efficiently classify lung illnesses under typical circumstances, the average accuracy increased up to 97%. The results of this study show significant improvement in the prognosis of lung prediction in medical filed.</p>2024-06-01T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 M.Sahaya Sheela, G. Amirthayogam, J.

The CREAC framework structures evaluating gaps where existing health regulations may lack clarity for emerging issues of accountability. Explanation contextualizes the probabilistic nature of AI inferences and how general principles of medical negligence could have ambiguous application currently if erroneous AI contributions result in patient harm. Application to a hypothetical scenario assesses if adequate protections for appropriate integration exist across developers, systems, healthcare facilities, and practitioners under applicable interpretations of existing laws. Finding liability rules insufficient absent targeted AI governance, conclusions recommend amending Act 829 in key areas to codify expectations for responsible innovation and prevent ambiguity in liability.</p> <p>This work carries scientific novelty as one of the first structured jurisdictional analyses internationally of healthcare AI accountability gaps through a legal lens. Practical significance lies in setting the stage for strengthening protections in Ghana through proposed statutory reforms that reduce uncertainty around this crucial area for quality care. The method and recommendations offer a model for modernizing medical negligence law and AI policy amidst ongoing digitization in healthcare worldwide.</p>2024-02-10T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 George Benneh Mensah, Pushan Kumar Duttahttps://mesopotamian.press/journals/index.php/MJAIH/article/view/454Assigning Medical Professionals: ChatGPT's Contributions to Medical Education and Health Prediction 2024-07-27T12:01:46+00:00Maad M.

Jasmine Hephzipahjjh.ece@rmkec.ac.in<p>Breast cancer is a common type of cancer in women, denoted by the uncontrolled growth of cells in breast tissue. Thus, manually detecting breast cancer is time-consuming and necessitates automated systems. Existing breast cancer screening methods often have limited efficacy and may delay detection and complicate the individual treatment planning process. However, early detection of breast cancer can be costly and impact the accuracy of diagnosis. To address this issue, we introduce a Darknet-53 Convolutional Neural Network (darknet-53CNN) approach for classifying breast cancer images and improving precision. Furthermore, we utilise the Contrast-Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) technique to pre-process breast cancer images to enhance image quality. Furthermore, we evaluate the intensity level of pixel images by feature extraction using the Haralick Grey-Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (HGLCM) technique. Finally, the DarkNet-53 CNN method improves the accuracy of detecting breast cancer and classifying images as benign or malignant. The proposed algorithm evaluates the specificity, sensitivity, accuracy and precision of predictive test results based on the classification of breast cancer images. Moreover, the accuracy of the proposed method has increased to 95.6% compared to the methods obtained from previous approaches.</p>2024-06-15T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 R. Rajkumar, S.

As advanced algorithms supplement or replace human judgments, dated laws centered on individual practitioner liability struggle to contemplate emerging negligence complexities. Act 857 lacks bespoke provisions for governing this new era beyond outdated assumptions of human-centric care models. With AI projected to transform medicine, proactive reforms appear vital to enable innovation gains while upholding accountability.</p> <p>Through an IRAC legal analysis lens supplemented by case law spanning from the United States to Ghana, this paper demonstrates how judiciaries globally are elucidating risks from legal uncertainty given increasingly autonomous health technologies. Findings reveal governance gaps impeding equitable access to remedy where algorithmic activities contribute to patient harm. Calls for stringent training, validation and monitoring prerequisites before deploying higher-risk AI systems signal a reframed standard of care is warranted.</p> <p>Detailed recommendations to modernize Act 857 and adjacent regulation are provided, covering practitioner codes, product safety, ongoing evaluation duties, and crucially, updated liability rules on apportioning fault between disparate enterprises enabling flawed AI. Beyond protecting patients and practitioners, enhanced governance can boost investor confidence in Ghana’s AI healthcare ecosystem.

Following the occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic, extensive investigations have been conducted to identify the existence of Sars-Cov-2 through the utilisation of several deep learning algorithms. The objective of this study is to conduct a comprehensive review of deep learning techniques utilised for the detection of COVID-19. "Can deep learning methodologies serve as a viable substitute for radiologists in the diagnostic process of COVID-19?" is the research inquiry. In order to compile research articles for the purpose of conducting a systematic review, two scientific databases were employed as primary sources. Databases such as PubMed and IEEE Xplore have been utilised for this purpose till January 2022. The published studies were examined in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. The study established predetermined criteria for exclusion and inclusion, and subsequently identified relevant works based on these criteria. The findings indicated that a total of 543 out of the 634 articles that were initially retrieved were excluded due to their lack of conformity with the predetermined criteria. Conversely, 87 articles met the inclusion criteria and were retained for further analysis. The research articles presented in this compilation are categorised into three distinct groups: the types of visual representations utilised, the methods employed for applying deep learning techniques, and the programming languages that are most frequently utilised. The exclusive reliance on deep learning algorithms is insufficient for substituting the visual diagnostic performed by physicians and radiologists in the detection of COVID-19. Due to the lack of substantiation by the medical establishment. CT and x-ray imaging modalities are commonly utilised in various fields. However, alternative imaging techniques, such as Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Ultrasonic imaging, are either overlooked or not given due consideration. The predominant focus of study is on retrospective (theoretical) rather than prospective (pragmatic) investigations. Consequently, there exists a significant need for researchers to enhance the practicality of their investigations.</p>2024-08-01T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Tarza Hasan Abdullah, Berivan Hasan Abdullah https://mesopotamian.press/journals/index.php/MJAIH/article/view/240Evaluating ChatGPT performance in Arabic dialects: A comparative study showing defects in responding to Jordanian and Tunisian general health prompts2024-01-03T22:19:51+00:00Malik Sallammalik.sallam@ju.edu.joDhia MousaDhiaa.moussa@gmail.com<p><strong>Background: </strong>The role of artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly recognized to enhance digital health literacy. There is of particular importance with widespread availability and popularity of AI chatbots such as ChatGPT and its possible impact on health literacy. The involves the need to understand AI models’ performance across different languages, dialects, and cultural contexts. This study aimed to evaluate ChatGPT performance in response to prompting in two different Arabic dialects, namely Tunisian and Jordanian.</p> <p><strong>Methods:</strong> This descriptive study followed the METRICS checklist for the design and reporting of AI based studies in healthcare. Ten general health queries were translated into Tunisian and Jordanian dialects of Arabic by bilingual native speakers. The performance of two AI models, ChatGPT-3.5 and ChatGPT-4 in response to Tunisian, Jordanian, and English were evaluated using the CLEAR tool tailored for assessment of health information generated by AI models.</p> <p><strong>Results:</strong> ChatGPT-3.5 performance was categorized as average in Tunisian Arabic, with an overall CLEAR score of 2.83, compared to above average score of 3.40 in Jordanian Arabic. ChatGPT-4 showed a similar pattern with marginally better outcomes with a CLEAR score of 3.20 in Tunisian rated as average and above average performance in Jordanian with a CLEAR score of 3.53. The CLEAR components consistently showed superior performance in the Jordanian dialect for both models despite the lack of statistical significance. Using English content as a reference, the responses to both Tunisian and Jordanian dialects were significantly inferior (<em>P</em><.001).</p> <p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> The findings highlight a critical dialectical performance gap in ChatGPT, underlining the need to enhance linguistic and cultural diversity in AI models’ development, particularly for health-related content. Collaborative efforts among AI developers, linguists, and healthcare professionals are needed to improve the performance of AI models across different languages, dialects, and cultural contexts. Future studies are recommended to broaden the scope across an extensive range of languages and dialects, which would help in achieving equitable access to health information across various communities.</p>2024-01-10T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Malik Sallam, Dhia Mousa
