Imagine a future where your smartphone could save your life, or an AI-enabled ultrasound device can make scanning more accurate. Healthcare organizations and experts around the world are coming together to transform how care is delivered. Authors Paul Cerrato, MA, and John D.

Today's digital tools include apps that detect abnormal heart rhythms, skin cancer, and other life-threatening conditions.

Welcome to the new era of digital health, where advanced technology and big data revolutionize the way you and your loved ones receive care.
