The innovative development of medical informatics and intelligent medicine will effectively promote the integration of artificial intelligence and medical health. "At the first China Intelligent Medicine Conference and the 5th China Medical Informatics Discipline Development Conference held on March 21, Liu Dengfeng, Director of the Science and Technology Education Department of the National Health Commission, stated that intelligent medicine needs to further consolidate its theoretical foundation, strengthen core technology research and development, activate the innovation momentum of health technology, and promote the application of digital intelligence technology in clinical and grassroots settings. The outline of the 15th Five Year Plan clearly proposes to "comprehensively implement the 'Artificial Intelligence+' action, strengthen the combination of artificial intelligence with scientific and technological innovation, industrial development, cultural construction, livelihood security, and social governance". Ji Xunming, an academician of the CAE Member and president of Peking Union Medical College of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, said that cutting-edge technologies such as generative AI, digital twins and brain computer interface are being innovatively applied in the whole process of medical health scenarios such as disease prevention and control, clinical diagnosis and treatment, medical research, and surgical treatment. It is necessary to systematically build a new ecological environment for integrated intelligent medical development and jointly build an intelligent medical development community. However, in the current integration process of intelligence and medicine, there are still challenges and bottlenecks at multiple levels such as computing power, data, technology applications, and industry ethics. The combination of virtual reality and artificial intelligence has enabled simulation and deduction in fields such as education and manufacturing. ”Zhao Qinping, an academician of the CAE Member and the chief expert of the National Key Laboratory of Virtual Reality Technology and Systems of Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, said frankly that AI+medicine has a wide range of application scenarios, but still lacks a "drill field" with interactive and realistic geometric forms, dynamic physical behavior, physiological or pathological characteristics. Zhao Qinping stated that building a medical virtual human body in the field of medicine still faces enormous challenges and many scientific problems that need to be solved. It is necessary to establish timely initiatives such as the "Medical Digital Human Body Plan" to promote the development of intelligent medicine. Although intelligent software can improve clinical work efficiency, it is still difficult to meet real clinical needs. ”Wang Zhenchang, an academician of the CAE Member and director of the Medical Digital Intelligence Innovation Center of Beijing Friendship Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, introduced that, for example, although the infrastructure of smart images has taken shape, there are still problems such as sharing difficulties and single functions. At present, relevant departments are promoting the research, development and application of the intelligent quality control model of medical images to promote the intelligent upgrading of medical images. China has unique advantages in the application scenarios of medical artificial intelligence. ”Hu Shengshou, an academician of the CAE Member and president of Fuwai Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, also said that AI technology still needs to be promoted and implemented in terms of standardizing medical behavior, optimizing patient experience, promoting management transformation and upgrading, promoting disease prevention and control at the grass-roots level, and improving diagnosis and treatment capabilities. Data driven informatization, intelligence, networking, and automation will continue to lead the high-quality development of public hospitals. At the same time, the conference released the "Research Report on the Development Strategy of Artificial Intelligence in China's Medical and Health Field". Deng Haihua, Secretary of the Party Committee and Vice President of Peking Union Medical College, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, said that he expected the report to provide reference for policy formulation, provide a reference line for scientific research and promote the formation of consensus on development.
