  • Healthcare AI Weekly: Skin Cancer AI + Colonoscopy Deskilling | Healthcare AI Weekly
    Jun 11 2026
    Healthcare AI Weekly - your bridge between clinical medicine and AI research. This week we examine two critical healthcare AI papers: Paper 1 - AI-powered skin cancer detection in clinical settings Paper 2 - The deskilling effect: how AI assistance in colonoscopy may reduce physician competency over time One paper shows AI outperforming clinicians in detection. The other raises an uncomfortable question: what happens to human skill when we rely on AI too much? MEDICAL DISCLAIMER: This podcast is for educational and informational purposes only.

    Jun 4 2026
    Healthcare AI Weekly - your bridge between clinical medicine and AI research. This week we cover two papers on AI detecting what current methods miss: Paper 1 - RCAID: Renal Cell Carcinoma AI Detector Huang C, Wang G, Yuan Y, et al. European Urology (2026) A plasma metabolomic model using 7 blood metabolites detected kidney cancer with AUROCs of 0.91-0.99 across 6 validation cohorts. Paper 2 - Video-based Detection of Delirium in Hospitalized Adults Mendu M, Tesh RA, Pellerin K, et al. PLOS Digital Health (2026) A video-based AI system using deep learning pose estimation detected delirium with AUC 0.79.

  • Healthcare AI Weekly: LLM Diagnostic Reasoning + Nurse Concern Signals | Healthcare AI Weekly
    May 23 2026
    Welcome to Healthcare AI Weekly with Raphael Malikian. This episode breaks down two recent peer-reviewed healthcare AI papers: one major paper on large language models for diagnostic reasoning in epilepsy, and one overlooked but important paper on nurse concern signals for inpatient deterioration. Papers covered: 1. "Evaluating large language models for diagnostic reasoning from unstructured clinical narratives in epilepsy" - Dani et al. 2. "Enhancing prediction of inpatient deterioration by combining nursing concern signals with machine learning" Both papers explore how AI can augment clinical judgment - one at the diagnostic reasoning level, the other at the bedside monitoring level.
