Acta Polytechnica Hungarica has published a special issue dedicated to the latest research outcomes on digital medical technologies conducted at Obuda University. The special issue addresses the globally relevant challenge of how medical solutions supported by artificial intelligence and machine learning can contribute to personalized medicine, patient safety, the sustainability of healthcare systems, and overall societal well-being.
The articles explore, among others, the following topics:
- Development and methodological challenges: mathematical modeling of chemotherapy, personalized therapies, robot-assisted and virtual reality (VR)-based rehabilitation programs.
- Clinical evaluation: the use of digital device data in medical decision-making, innovative testing and data collection methods, transparent and reproducible study protocols.
- Health economics approaches: synthesis of clinical evidence, perspectives in health technology assessment.
- Societal readiness, acceptance, and usability: the role of robots and chatbots in healthcare, implantable digital devices, digital literacy, patient and caregiver attitudes, as well as safety, ethical, and market entry considerations.
The research was supported by the National Research, Development and Innovation Fund (TKP2021-NKTA-36).
