Topic

Explainability and interpretability in Medical AI

Abstract

The use of AI-enabled technologies in healthcare has significantly improved decision-making by healthcare staff, including pathologists, radiologists, and surgeons, leading to better patient outcomes. However, medical AI faces unique challenges, particularly in achieving explainability and interpretability. As AI algorithms become more complex, understanding how they make decisions is critical. This is especially true in medical AI, where model safety and trustworthiness rely on interpretability and explainability. The presentation will discuss the challenges associated with achieving interpretability and explainability in medical AI, including the complexity of data, the opaque nature of some AI algorithms, and the need to balance accuracy with interpretability. Additionally, it will examine the potential benefits of interpretable and explainable AI in medical decision-making, such as improved patient outcomes, reduced costs, and increased transparency. Furthermore, we will explore the latest methods, techniques, and research used to overcome these challenges.
