Google thinks India has what it takes to lead the world in AI-powered healthcare.
Rajroshan Sawhney from Google Research points out that India's huge population, digital know-how, and unique health challenges make it a perfect place for innovation.
He believes even small improvements here could have a global impact.
Google helps India digitize medical records
Google is teaming up with Indian health authorities to digitize millions of medical records and improve patient care.
Their tech has been used in projects such as Aarogya Setu 2.0, and open-source tools are speeding up new health app development.
Plus, partnerships with top hospitals like AIIMS have led to smart tools like an AI triage assistant and a skin-disease app for field workers.
In Rajasthan alone, more than 35 million TB screenings happened this year thanks to these efforts, showing how AI can help real people at scale.
