WiDS Maastricht Conference 2022 - Where are AI driven decision support systems in healthcare?

How can we apply technology to improve healthcare? What is the best approach to deal with all digital data from healthcare that we obtain every day? What can we learn from that data? These and many more questions are inspiring the researchers and engineers worldwide. Remarkable advancements are made in data analysis for healthcare, making medical diagnosis and interventions more objective, safe and efficient. Yet, despite the growing amounts of data and AI technologies, there are still challenges. In this keynote talk we will consider examples of them: content and context in data, explainability of AI outcomes, and future developments.
