“AI does not replace doctors but is a support tool, helping to make quick and accurate clinical decisions, improving treatment quality and patient satisfaction,” said Mr. Nam.

According to Mr. Tran Hung Manh, Director of the Post Office Hospital, from July 1, 2024, the hospital is one of the first 100 units recognized by the Ministry of Health to deploy electronic medical records, completely replacing paper records. This is an important step forward, creating a foundation for the application of AI, big data and cloud computing. The hospital is cooperating with other units to build a smart hospital model, focusing on patients, ensuring modern, safe and friendly medical services.

Diagnostic imaging (X-ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound) plays a core role in modern medicine, but large volumes of data and the need for fast, accurate diagnosis are putting pressure on medical staff.

The emergence and rapid development of AI has brought about breakthrough solutions, helping medical staff to: Process and analyze image data at outstanding speeds; Detect abnormalities that are difficult to detect with the naked eye; Support faster and more accurate clinical decision making; Help reduce errors and optimize doctors' working time.

These advances not only improve the quality of treatment but also bring practical benefits to patients, contributing to the digital transformation journey for public health.

At this seminar, experts updated the latest trends in AI application in image diagnosis; shared practical experiences in the implementation process; analyzed opportunities, challenges and barriers in integrating AI into the medical examination and treatment process... so that AI becomes a useful tool, supporting doctors, accompanying patients, contributing to the sustainable development of the health system.
