The University of Montenegro (UCG) announced that a demo version of the AIHeal application was presented at that university, saying that it is an advanced health care system based on artificial intelligence.
"This innovative application uses the technologies of sensors and mobile devices to monitor the health status of patients in real time, enabling accurate diagnostics, cost reduction and optimization of health care," states UCG.
AIHeal is the result of the project "Health System Based on Artificial Intelligence", financed by the Innovation Fund.
The presentation of the demo version was held by the guest professor of the Faculty of Science and Mathematics, Miroslav Bojović, in the presence of UCG rector Vladimir Božović, Minister of Health Vojislav Šimun and president of the Montenegrin Academy of Sciences and Arts and UCG professor Ljubiša Stanković.
Bojović emphasized that AIHeal brings solutions to many contemporary challenges in the healthcare system, including rising costs and shortage of medical personnel.
"This system enables process automation and provides accurate real-time diagnostic data. In this way, the quality of care is improved and the number of unnecessary visits to doctors is reduced, while patients can actively monitor their health status," said Bojović.
UCG explained that AIHeal enables the creation of a "digital double" of a patient, using data from various sources – from sensors to electronic health records. "The system combines rule-based algorithms and deep learning techniques to analyze data and provide personalized treatment recommendations. For example, if a patient has heart problems, the system instantly notifies the doctor, reducing the risk of serious complications and life-threatening complications," it said.
Božović, as reported, expressed his enthusiasm for the project, saying that AIHeal is "proof that we can create advanced products in our country as well". "This is the result of the work of our experts and has the potential to be globally competitive", the rector of UCG points out.
Šimun praised the application for its ability to improve primary health care:
"AIHeal enables doctors to quickly see the condition of patients, reducing the number of unnecessary trips to the secondary and tertiary level of health care. It is especially important in the prevention of complications in cardiovascular and many other patients. The target group of this application is wide because its greatest potential is the extension of quality years of the population's life."
Stanković emphasized the importance of interdisciplinary work, saying that AIHeal is not only technological progress, but also an example of how artificial intelligence can improve the health system and have global significance.
He discussed the possibilities of improving the application with the project team from both a scientific and professional perspective.
"The project has already received praise abroad, especially in European countries such as Germany and Asian countries such as the United Arab Emirates and Dubai. In the coming years, AIHeal is expected to significantly reduce the pressure on health systems and help prevent health problems. The system is designed to widespread use, from family medicine to specialized hospital departments. According to projections, by 2030, AIHeal will be used by more than 500.000 patients, with a monthly fee, thus generating significant revenue for healthcare institutions," the statement concluded.
