Summary

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming modern healthcare by enabling intelligent diagnosis, personalized treatment, predictive analytics, and evidence-based clinical decision-making. Recent advances in foundation models, large language models (LLMs), multimodal learning, and explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) have significantly enhanced the ability of AI systems to analyze diverse healthcare data, including medical images, electronic health records, genomic data, clinical notes, and wearable sensor information. These technologies are paving the way for trustworthy clinical decision support systems that improve patient outcomes while increasing healthcare efficiency.

Despite these advances, the clinical adoption of AI remains challenging due to concerns regarding interpretability, robustness, fairness, privacy, regulatory compliance, and physician trust. Addressing these challenges requires the development of transparent, reliable, and clinically validated AI methodologies capable of supporting safe and ethical healthcare delivery.

This Special Issue aims to provide an interdisciplinary platform for researchers, clinicians, and industry experts to present innovative research on Applied Artificial Intelligence for Intelligent Healthcare, with a particular focus on foundation models, explainable AI, and clinical decision support systems. We welcome original research, reviews, and case studies covering trustworthy AI, multimodal learning, federated learning, medical imaging, natural language processing, predictive analytics, and intelligent healthcare systems. Emphasis will be placed on clinically relevant solutions demonstrating real-world deployment, measurable healthcare impact, and responsible AI practices that advance precision medicine, patient-centered care, and sustainable digital healthcare ecosystems.
