On this page you will find overviews, insights, and in-depth information on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and Big Data in medical technology. The use of AI and Big Data is pushing the boundaries of healthcare. By analyzing large data sets, AI algorithms can recognize complex patterns and provide precise predictions for diagnoses and treatments.

The insights gained lead to personalized medicine that takes individual needs into account and improves the efficiency of therapies. Experts will be presenting promising solutions in the form of medical products or research approaches at MEDICA 2024.

In the run-up to MEDICA, we will regularly add more program information from our forums and conferences on AI & Big Data to this page.

Earlier diagnoses, optimized treatment plans and personalized medicine thanks to AI and Big Data

In imaging, the combination of AI and Big Data enables a more accurate interpretation of MRI scans and X-rays, allowing earlier diagnoses and optimized treatment plans. AI-assisted surgery is enhancing complex procedures through precise navigation and real-time support for doctors. In addition, the application of AI and Big Data in drug research and development accelerates the identification of new active ingredients and improves the efficiency of clinical trials.

The integration of AI and Big Data in medical technology promises a future of precision medicine with more personalized, effective and accessible healthcare. Start-ups, in particular, are expanding the horizons of healthcare with innovative ideas. At MEDICA, the MEDICA START-UP PARK and the MEDICA START-UP COMPETITION introduce approaches that could be the missing building block for your success with AI or Big Data.
