Agentic AI for Healthcare 5.0

Agentic AI for Healthcare 5.0: Intelligent Agents, Autonomous Systems, and Governance Frameworks is an edited volume that examines how autonomous agents reshape healthcare toward Healthcare 5.0. It integrates foundations, clinical and operational applications, and governance concerns to provide a cohesive, practitioner-informed perspective. The book covers foundational agentic models, decision-making, and cyber-physical infrastructures; it then presents application-focused chapters on autonomous clinical decision support, patient monitoring, medical robotics, and hospital workflow orchestration, followed by chapters on distributed learning, semantic interoperability, digital twins, and cybersecurity. For researchers in bioinformatics, clinicians, and policymakers, it clarifies when and how agentic AI adds value, supports safe deployment, and informs governance. It equips readers with evaluation frameworks, design patterns, and policy guidance to advance responsible adoption of intelligent agents in Healthcare 5.0.
