AI-driven Innovations in Physiotherapy and Oncology 1 explores the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on two critical domains of healthcare. As the global demand for personalized, efficient and data-driven medical interventions increases, this book offers a timely examination of how AI technologies are reshaping clinical practices in both physiotherapy and oncology.
The book explores how AI supports early cancer detection, personalized treatment planning and monitoring of disease progression, while also playing a pivotal role in physiotherapy by enabling intelligent rehabilitation strategies tailored to oncology patients. From AI-driven motion analysis and virtual physiotherapy assistants to predictive models for treatment response and functional recovery, this book showcases innovations that optimize physical therapy outcomes for cancer patients. It also addresses ethical challenges, data governance and the integration of AI within clinical workflows. Designed for clinicians, researchers and healthcare innovators, this book is a vital resource for understanding how AI bridges the gap between oncology care and rehabilitative physiotherapy.
