Google’s diagnostic AI can now ‘see’ medical data like doctors do

Key Points 

• Google’s AMIE now uses visual medical data, like rashes and ECGs, to improve diagnosis in patient chats.

• In head-to-head tests, AMIE outperformed human doctors on diagnostic accuracy and interpretation of medical images.

☕News - Google is expanding the capabilities of its diagnostic AI, AMIE (Articulate Medical Intelligence Explorer), to understand visual medical data, not just text. That means in the future, AMIE could examine a rash photo or interpret an ECG, not just respond to typed symptoms.

AMIE was already impressive in handling text-based chats, but real-world diagnosis involves more than words. Doctors often rely on what they can see, like skin conditions, scan results or handwritten lab reports. With an upgraded framework powered by Gemini 2.0 Flash, AMIE now adapts mid-conversation, asking follow-up questions or image uploads when needed.

🩺Early results - To test this, Google used detailed simulations by pulling real medical images and data from trusted databases and wrapping them in realistic patient stories. AMIE then “chatted” with simulated patients, and its performance was tested in an OSCE-style setup, just like med students.

In a study of 105 medical scenarios, AMIE often outperformed human primary care physicians. Specialists rated its diagnostic accuracy and image interpretation higher, and patient actors found it surprisingly empathetic and trustworthy.

🏥What’s next? Google is now testing AMIE in real clinical settings with partners like Beth Israel. While it is still early days, this research signals a big leap toward AI that doesn’t just listen, it sees, reasons and responds like a true clinical partner.

Tencent-backed Chinese startup opens world’s first AI-run clinic in Saudi Arabia

Key Points 

• Synyi AI’s virtual doctor “Dr. Hua” diagnoses and prescribes treatments on its own, with human doctors approving the plans.

• The pilot currently focuses on respiratory diseases, with plans to cover 50 illnesses and expand clinics soon.

🗞️News - A Chinese startup, Synyi AI, has opened the world’s first clinic in Saudi Arabia where an artificial intelligence system acts as the primary doctor, diagnosing and prescribing treatment independently. 

The pilot launched in April in the eastern Al-Ahsa region in partnership with Almoosa Health Group.

🤖How this works - Patients describe symptoms to “Dr. Hua,” a virtual AI doctor on a tablet. The AI asks follow-up questions and reviews medical data like X-rays and cardiograms with human assistance. Afterward, Dr. Hua delivers a treatment plan approved by human doctors, who never see the patients but handle emergencies if needed. Synyi says Dr. Hua’s error rate during tests was below 0.3%.

Notably, while the project is still in trial, only a few dozen patients have used the service so far, focusing on respiratory illnesses such as asthma. 

🤓Future plans - Synyi aims to expand Dr. Hua’s expertise to 50 conditions across respiratory, skin, and digestive health within a year. With backing from Tencent, Synyi hopes to prove the model commercially viable in China before scaling further. CEO Zhang Shaodian believes AI could boost healthcare efficiency tenfold, especially in underserved areas where doctor visits are costly and scarce.
