AI could empower patients to self-manage routine aspects of care and equip clinicians with advanced decision support for complex cases.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While all this is quite impressive, still Microsoft acknowledged its work is not ready for clinical use as the company is of the opinion that this requires further testing as they need on its \u201corchestrator\u201d to assess its performance on more common symptoms, for instance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatoday.in\/health\/story\/microsoft-ai-diagnostic-tool-diagnoses-illnesses-accurately-reduces-costs-2748874-2025-07-01\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A fresh round of layoffs has recently been initiated by the technology major, Microsoft as the company has developed a new medical AI tool that performs better than human doctors at complex health diagnoses.
