Telemedicine provides remote help for patients

In November, a patient in Hefei, capital of the eastern province of Anhui, visited a community health center and was diagnosed with arrhythmia by He Qi, a local physician.

However, He strongly urged the patient to undergo a coronary angiography at a higher-level hospital because his artificial intelligence assistant had produced a different diagnosis.

The results showed that the AI was correct - the patient actually had coronary heart disease.
