The role of artificial medical intelligence through medical big data has been focused on data-based medical device business and medical service technology development in the field of diagnostic examination of the patient's current condition, clinical decision support, and patient monitoring and management. Recently, with the 4th Industrial Revolution, the medical field changed the medical treatment paradigm from the method of treatment based on the knowledge and experience of doctors in the past to the form of receiving the help of high-precision medical intelligence based on medical data. In addition, due to the spread of non-face-to-face treatment due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it is expected that the era of telemedicine, in which patients will be treated by doctors at home rather than hospitals, will soon come. It can be said that artificial medical intelligence plays a big role at the center of this paradigm shift in prevention-centered treatment rather than treatment. Based on big data, this paper analyzes the current status of artificial intelligence technology for chronic disease patients, market trends, and domestic and foreign company trends to predict the expected effect and future development direction of artificial intelligence technology for chronic disease patients. In addition, it is intended to present the necessity of developing digital therapeutics that can provide various medical services to chronically ill patients and serve as medical support to clinicians.

"In the future, 80% of doctors will be replaced by advanced technology." It has been talked about for a long time. When I first heard this story, people said it was ridiculous. But now that AlphaGo has won the Go match against Lee Se-dol, and many global companies have come up with a variety of services and products based on artificial intelligence, the story has become no more than ridiculous. In other words, it is beginning to come true. Artificial intelligence technology is already widely used in manufacturing and service industries. This spread of artificial intelligence is sure to usher in an era of great change in our future. And it is safe to say that it is the "medical world" where the biggest changes will be made. So how on earth does artificial intelligence replace medical personnel? If replaced, where would you stand out? In order to understand this, we must first be familiar with deep learning, which is the basis of medical artificial intelligence. And as the fourth industrial revolution gradually approaches reality, various occupational groups are becoming meaningless, as in the preceding industrial revolution, and in this paper we will learn about the impact of this situation on the medical community.

Chest PA is the basic examination of radiographic imaging. Moreover, Chest PA's demands are constantly increasing because of the Increase in respiratory diseases. However, it is not meeting the demand due to problems such as a shortage of radiological technologist, sexual shame caused by patient contact, and the spread of infectious diseases. There have been many cases of using artificial intelligence to solve this problem. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to build an artificial intelligence dataset of Chest PA and to find a posture evaluation method. To construct the posture dataset, the posture image is acquired during actual and simulated examination and classified correct and incorrect posture of the patient. And to evaluate the artificial intelligence posture method, a posture estimation algorithm is used to preprocess the dataset and an artificial intelligence classification algorithm is applied. As a result, Chest PA posture dataset is validated with in over 95% accuracy in all artificial intelligence classification and the accuracy is improved through the Top-Down posture estimation algorithm AlphaPose and the classification InceptionV3 algorithm. Based on this, it will be possible to build a non-face-to-face automatic Chest PA examination system using artificial intelligence.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a biologically heterogeneous tumor characterized by varying degrees of aggressiveness. The current treatment strategy for HCC is predominantly determined by the overall tumor burden, and does not address the diverse prognoses of patients with HCC owing to its heterogeneity. Therefore, the prognostication of HCC using imaging data is crucial for optimizing patient management. Although some radiologic features have been demonstrated to be indicative of the biologic behavior of HCC, traditional radiologic methods for HCC prognostication are based on visually-assessed prognostic findings, and are limited by subjectivity and inter-observer variability. Consequently, artificial intelligence has emerged as a promising method for image-based prognostication of HCC. Unlike traditional radiologic image analysis, artificial intelligence based on radiomics or deep learning utilizes numerous image-derived quantitative features, potentially offering an objective, detailed, and comprehensive analysis of the tumor phenotypes. Artificial intelligence, particularly radiomics has displayed potential in a variety of applications, including the prediction of microvascular invasion, recurrence risk after locoregional treatment, and response to systemic therapy. This review highlights the potential value of artificial intelligence in the prognostication of HCC as well as its limitations and future prospects.

CT is a medical device that acquires medical images based on Attenuation coefficient of human organs related to X-rays. In addition, using this theory, it can acquire sagittal and coronal planes and 3D images of the human body. Then, CT is essential device for universal diagnostic test. But Exposure of CT scan is so high that it is regulated and managed with special medical equipment. As the special medical equipment, CT must implement quality control. In detail of quality control, Spatial resolution of existing phantom imaging tests, Contrast resolution and clinical image evaluation are qualitative tests. These tests are not objective, so the reliability of the CT undermine trust. Therefore, by applying an artificial intelligence classification model, we wanted to confirm the possibility of quantitative evaluation of the qualitative evaluation part of the phantom test. We used intelligence classification models (VGG19, DenseNet201, EfficientNet B2, inception_resnet_v2, ResNet50V2, and Xception). And the fine-tuning process used for learning was additionally performed. As a result, in all classification models, the accuracy of spatial resolution was 0.9562 or higher, the precision was 0.9535, the recall was 1, the loss value was 0.1774, and the learning time was from a maximum of 14 minutes to a minimum of 8 minutes and 10 seconds. Through the experimental results, it was concluded that the artificial intelligence model can be applied to CT implements quality control in spatial resolution and contrast resolution.

In this study, research was conducted to predict the probability of cervical cancer occurrence associated with the use of hormonal contraceptives. Cervical cancer is influenced by various environmental factors; however, the human papillomavirus (HPV) is detected in 99% of cases, making it the primary attributed cause. Additionally, although cervical cancer ranks 10th in overall female cancer incidence, it is nearly 100% preventable among known cancers. Early-stage cervical cancer typically presents no symptoms but can be detected early through regular screening. Therefore, routine tests, including cytology, should be conducted annually, as early detection significantly improves the chances of successful treatment. Thus, we employed artificial intelligence technology to forecast the likelihood of developing cervical cancer. We utilized the logistic regression algorithm, a predictive model, through Microsoft Azure. The classification model yielded an accuracy of 80.8%, a precision of 80.2%, a recall rate of 99.0%, and an F1 score of 88.6%. These results indicate that the use of hormonal contraceptives is associated with an increased risk of cervical cancer. Further development of the artificial intelligence program, as studied here, holds promise for reducing mortality rates attributable to cervical cancer.
