One of America's top doctors reveals how AI will empower physicians and revolutionize patient care Medicine has become inhuman, to disastrous effect. The doctor-patient relationship--the heart of medicine--is broken: doctors are too distracted and overwhelmed to truly connect with their patients, and medical errors and misdiagnoses abound. In Deep Medicine, leading physician Eric Topol reveals how artificial intelligence can help. AI has the potential to transform everything doctors do, from notetaking and medical scans to diagnosis and treatment, greatly cutting down the cost of medicine and reducing human mortality. By freeing physicians from the tasks that interfere with human connection, AI will create space for the real healing that takes place between a doctor who can listen and a patient who needs to be heard. Innovative, provocative, and hopeful, Deep Medicine shows us how the awesome power of AI can make medicine better, for all the humans involved.
Dr. Topol offers "an evidence-based approach to longevity in a market drenched in snake oil. [He] doesn't promise a silver bullet to magically stop the aging process, he shows how preventing the development of killer chronic diseases like obesity, heart disease, cancer, and neurodegeneration is completely changing what 'old age' can be. And we can start long before middle age--or long after. ... Breakthrough treatments have been developed from new tools, new understanding of how our personal genomes work, and what AI can see in our health data. We can now engineer cells, build proteins, and find drugs that make us live longer, better. Many of these treatments are on the shelf now--or soon will be--and improving fast"--
This reference provides guidance on clinical and scientific principles and concepts behind thrombosis and heart disease. It seeks to bridge the gap between cardiology, haematology, molecular biology and clinical medicine. The text builds an organized framework that begins with Fundamental Considerations, an overview of the general mechanisms of thrombosis and their relationship to atherosclerosis. The second section, Antithrombotic and Thrombolytic Drugs covers pharmacologic therapy, and the final section discusses the Prevention and Treatment of Thromboembolic Disorders.
