Artificial Intelligence in Medical Science - Glass AI 2.0

 AI is disrupting industry after industry and healthcare is not immune. This is only the beginning, but I can imagine a big part of the healthcare system will be managed by AI. 😎

Glass AI 2.0 improves significantly from the prior version thanks to the feedback of all users. This AI combines a base large language model (LLM) with a clinical knowledge database to provide Clinical Plan outputs. https://glass.health/ai/

This is a horrendous way to approach medicine, but you can see it also as a new and only way to provide a minimum healthcare diagnosis to all developing countries at once.

Gastrointestinal / Digestive System

Gastrointestinal System (Digestive System)
The human digestive system is a complex process that consists of breaking down large organic masses into smaller particles that the body can use as fuel. The breakdown of the nutrients requires the coordination of several enzymes secreted from specialized cells within the mouth, stomach, intestines, and liver. The digestive system comprises of two main components:
The digestive tract includes the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestine and anus.
Associated glands include salivary glands, liver and pancreas.
 

Respiratory System

The Respiratory System supplies the body with oxygen, Air is inhaled through the nose or mouth. It then travels into the pharynx, passes through the larynx, and down the trachea. The trachea branch and air reaches the lungs where it will diffuse into the blood via the alveoli.

 Respiration is the Act of Breathing:
  • Inhaling (Inspiration)--taking in oxygen
  • Exhaling (Expiration)--giving off carbon dioxide
The Respiratory System is made up of the organs involved in the interchanges of gases, and consists of the:
  • Nose
  • Mouth (Oral Cavity)
  • Pharynx (Throat)
  • Larynx (Voice Box)
  • Trachea (Windpipe)
  • Bronchi
  • Lungs 

Muscular System

The muscular system makes up nearly half the weight of the human body. The muscles provide the forces that enable the body to move. Muscles stretch across joints to link one bone with another and work in groups to respond to nerve impulses.

There are three types of muscle
  • Skeletal Muscle
  • Smooth Muscle
  • Cardiac Muscle

Circulatory System


Circulatory System composed of:
  • Cardiovascular System
  • Lymphatic System
Cardiovascular System

The main components of the human cardiovascular system are the
Heart, Blood, Blood Vessels & Following Type of Circulation
  • Pulmonary Circulation (going to and from the lungs) Pulmonary Circulation is part of the cardiovascular system which forms a loop of blood vessels that moves non-oxygenated blood away from the heart to the lungs where carbon dioxide is released. Oxygen is picked up by the red blood cells in the lungs and is then transported from there back to the heart. The pump for the arterial side is the heart and the pump for the venous side is smooth muscle and respiration.
  • Coronary Circulation (going to and from the heart tissues) Coronary Circulation is part of the systemic circulatory system and it transports blood to and from the heart.
  • Systemic Circulation (going to and from the rest of the body) Systemic Circulation is that portion of the cardiovascular system which carries oxygen rich blood from the heart to all parts of the body and returns oxygen depleted blood back to the heart. The primary pump for the arterial side of this system is the heart. The pump for the venous side of this system is smooth muscle, skeletal muscle and movement and respiration.
