Apollo Hospitals for the last month has been benefiting by Microsoft's Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technologies to accurately predict cardiac diseases and also suggest preventive measures to affected patients.
How to Determine If Cardiac Disease is Coronary or Not?
Globally, acute myocardial Infarction (AMI) is a major cause of death and disability as one in eight patients die of an ischemic heart disease.

‘Microsoft's Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technologies at Apollo Hospitals now aid in accurate prediction of cardiac diseases.’
"Apollo Hospitals recognised the potential of technologies like AI, ML and data analytics in providing high-quality preventive healthcare services very early," Sangita Reddy, Joint Managing Directo r, Apollo Hospitals Enterprise Ltd, told reporters here. "Our partnership with Microsoft bring us to the forefront of this remarkable metamorphosis that is allowing us to meet healthcare demand and maintain service excellence regardless of geography," Reddy added.
The AI Network for Healthcare, previously known as Microsoft Intelligent Network for Eyecare (MINE), is a part of Microsoft "Healthcare NexT" initiative aimed at accelerating healthcare innovation through AI and Cloud computing.

"The beauty of these solutions is that all the depersonalized personal health data that Apollo Hospitals is crunching comes from the Indian population," Microsoft said in a blog post on Wednesday.

Cardiac Disease can be Diagnosed Via 'Face Time' for the Heart
A careful observer can understand what is going on beneath the surface by looking at a person's face.

Now, when a patient goes for a cardio health check, the doctor can build up a more accurate cardio-vascular health profile of the patient based on machine learning of all their previous patient data.
AI can then, in turn, predict future coronary ailments the patient might experience in the next 10 to 20 years based on these multiple factors.
"Secondly, the doctor can make a patient health plan that addresses these possibilities whether it be prescribing medicine or recommending specific lifestyle changes," the post said.
"Why does an individual with an X genetic biological presentation have disease X but not Y? Why does someone with the same lifestyle not have the same problem? Computing capacity is enabling us to take this data and generate clinical insights," explained Reddy.
With the power of the Cloud, doctors can share high resolution 3D imagery and consult partner doctors locally and abroad in real time, improving surgery pre-planning and success.
