Considerations about the introduction of iMagis® software as a teaching aid in health sciences
Keywords:
artificial intelligence, diagnosis, teaching, therapeutics, prognosis, X-ray computed tomographyAbstract
Introduction: The technologies used in medical imaging diagnosis comprise two broad categories, depending on whether they require anatomical or functional details of the organs or tissues analyzed.
Objective: To assess the effectiveness of introducing iMagis® software as a teaching formative aid in health sciences.
Development: In addition to leveraging existing technological potential, it is necessary to incorporate iMagis® as a teaching aid in the training processes of medical, technology, and residency students in various medical and surgical specialties. In health sciences, it is essential to design methodologies that guide the use of the software, taking into account the gnoseological specificities of the programs and specializations in their training dynamics, in order to address the identified shortcomings in the preparation of future health professionals to interpret the images obtained which provide relevant elements for medical diagnosis.
Conclusion: It is considered appropriate to develop strategies to optimize the use of iMagis® software as a teaching aid for teaching purposes in various health science programs and residencies.
