R3,896 Discovery Miles 38 960 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Belonging to the realm of intelligent technologies, it is increasingly accepted that artificial intelligence (AI) has evolved from being merely a development standpoint in computer science. Indeed, recent reports and academic publications show that we are clearly on the path toward pervasive AI in both business and society. Organizations must adopt AI to maintain a competitive advantage and explore opportunities for unprecedented innovation. This book focuses on understanding the wide range of opportunities as well as the spectrum of challenges AI brings in different business contexts and society at large. The book highlights novel and high-quality research in data science and business analytics and examines the current and future impact of AI in business and society. The authors bridge the gap between business and technical perspectives and demonstrate the potential (and actual) impact on society. Embracing applied, qualitative, and quantitative research as well as field experiments and data analysis, the book covers a broad range of topics including but not limited to human-centered AI, product and process innovation, corporate governance, AI and ethics, organizational performance, and entrepreneurship. This comprehensive book will be a valuable resource for researchers, academics, and postgraduate students across AI, technology and innovation management, and a wide range of business disciplines.

Communities of Practice and Vintage Innovation - A Strategic Reaction to Technological Change (Paperback, 2014 ed.): Francesco... Communities of Practice and Vintage Innovation - A Strategic Reaction to Technological Change (Paperback, 2014 ed.)

R1,762 Discovery Miles 17 620 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book focuses on the notion of "vintage innovation" and its application in various old technology-based communities of practice. Some communities of practice resist and react to technological change by adopting new technological products ("vintage products") that extend the lifetime of their old, favored products and practices. There are a number of potential reasons for such strategic reactions, which are analyzed by the author. The book opens by reviewing the nature of technological change. Old technology-based communities of practice and their typical reactions to technological change are then discussed, and the concept of vintage innovation, introduced and explained. The book presents four case studies of communities of users in which vintage innovation emerged: analog photographers, radio amateurs, arcade videogame players, and disc jockeys. "

Due to the diverse diagnostic imaging techniques available (x-ray/CT, Magnetic Resonance, Nuclear Medicine, Ultrasonography) radiologic examinations are made of an enormous amount of images, which means that the elements to be described and interpreted by the radiologist are sometimes exorbitant. Furthermore, the expectations of the population and the ones of the physicians requiring examinations are growing, so that besides patients, also so-called clients (i.e., supposed healthy people) flow into everyday clinical practice of a radiology department, based on disease prevention/screening programs.

Registration and interpretation/reporting modules of a computer-assisted radiologic reporting system were created to help the radiologist in his task. However, the radiologist is also expected to write a report with a diversified language, according to diagnostic technique(s), population type (client vs. patient; pediatric, adult, geriatric), pathology, and across all body areas.

The authors wish to suggest a shared methodology to uniform as much as possible the way of writing a radiologic report, how to most effectively communicate the results of an examination. The important role played by language also from a legal-forensic point of view is also considered.

Radiologia Geriatrica (Italian, Hardcover, 2006 ed.): Giuseppe Guglielmi, Francesco Schiavon, Teresa Cammarota Radiologia Geriatrica (Italian, Hardcover, 2006 ed.)

R1,566 Discovery Miles 15 660 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

La "cultura geriatrica" - intesa come conoscenza e dominio dei processi di invecchiamento - non ha avuto ancora piena affermazione in campo medico-sanitario. Questo comporta che il piu delle volte non si sappia distinguere a pieno il limite tra il fisiologico e il patologico che distinge l'anziano sano con gli inevitabili "acciacchi" dovuti all'invecchiamento da quello abbisognevole di supporti sanitari e/o assistenziali. Finora si e spesso trattato l'anziano con la cultura dell'adulto, molto diversa da quella geriatrica, con il risultato di considerare malato anche chi ha solo il torto di dimostrare i propri anni. In sostanza, mentre le eta della crescita e della piena efficienza sono ben conosciute nei loro aspetti normali e patologici, non altrettanto avviene per l'eta della decadenza, per la quale ci si avvale impropriamente di un altro metro di valutazione. Il risultato inevitabile di tutto questo e che gli interventi di supporto per la terza eta possono essere scorretti, cosi come l'impiego delle risorse umane e finanziare ad essa destinate. I vincoli economici sempre piu stretti da un lato e il progressivo allargamento della popolazione anziana dall'altro rendono ormai ineludibile l'affermarsi di una vera e propria "cultura geriatrica" non solo in campo diagnostico radiologico ma anche in tutte le altre discipline specialistiche. Quest'opera vuole andare in questa direzione."

R1,709 Discovery Miles 17 090 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book explores in depth the phenomenon of user innovation in healthcare. In particular, the book sheds light on patient innovation, whereby patients and/or caregivers proactively develop and diffuse new products and services that provide health and quality of life benefits by addressing gaps in existing market offerings. The aim is to clarify the key characteristics of these innovative processes and to offer practitioners and policymakers tangible bottom-up evidence, solutions, and ideas that will assist in improving health systems, organizations, and practices. A number of important and interesting research questions are addressed, casting light on the types of products and services that tend to be developed by patient innovators, the typical profile of these innovators, the role played by firms, institutions, and health professionals, and the ways in which digital technologies support the dissemination of innovations among patient communities and within the industry. Beyond academic scholars and policymakers, the book will be of high value for students on master's programs in both medical sciences and business and economics.

Dopo esserci occupati della comunicazione degli esami radiologici nei Pazienti degenti in Ospedale, riteniamo opportuno trattarla anche in quelli ambulatoriali; in modo da completare l'argomento e integrare gli ambiti sanitari. Infatti, negli ambulatori convenzionati vengono effettuate prestazioni sanitarie, che l'Ospedale non e in grado di erogare, anche e soprattutto a Utenti, cioe a persone in apparente benessere, con le seguenti caratteristiche: -comunicazione di stato di malattia in fase pre-clinica, cioe asintomatica; -comunicazione di negativita in presunto malato; -richiamo ad adeguato stile di vita (cultura della salute); -educazione sanitaria. Tutto cio implica l'integrazione multi-disciplinare (Radiologo, Psicologo, Eticista, Economista, etc..) e l'applicazione di modelli comunicativi-sia di metodo che applicativi-finalizzati e specifici."

Il referto A] la (TM)atto medico che qualifica il radiologo come specialista ed A] la sua modalitA ufficiale di comunicare sia col medico prescrittore sia con chi si sottopone a esami diagnostici. Il referto dovrebbe pertanto essere chiaro e comprensibile, redatto con un linguaggio condiviso. Ma A] davvero cosA� nella realtA radiologica attuale? Purtroppo no - e ciA non vale solo nel nostro paese. La (TM)argomento A] stato infatti da sempre sottovalutato e quasi mai inserito nei programmi da (TM)insegnamento delle Scuole di SpecialitA; inoltre, a tutta (TM)oggi non esistono linee-guida affidabili, nonostante la progressiva complessitA e il sempre maggior numero di esami diagnostici effettuati.

PuA essere il referto "strutturato" a" cioA] quello che si avvale delle odierne potenzialitA multimediali a" una risposta adeguata in tale direzione? Ovvero, sino a che punto A] possibile proporre e far applicare a tutti i radiologi uno schema refertativo senza comprimere la professionalitA del singolo professionista? Sono queste le principali sfide che il volume si propone di affrontare.
