The doctor listens to signals coming from different parts of the patient's body and identifies signs, symptoms and other connotative clinical-anamnestic elements, necessary for a personalized diagnosis. Today his senses are extended through ICT allowing diagnoses, prognoses, and therapies to be aided by the use of artificial intelligence. For instance, through imaging diagnostic, he is able to visualize all the organs of the human body. The interpretation of data from these highly complex devices can be supported by generative artificial intelligence, which compares the gathered data with that from millions of medical records, even predicting the evolution or onset of pathologies. Using digital twins, surgeon can simulate three-dimensional scenarios with augmented reality before commencing surgical procedures, thereby increasing the likelihood of success. The contribution of Ergonomics is fundamental in all of this, as it studies the interactions between healthcare workers, patients, medical equipment and the hospital environment, proposing adequate anthropocentric interfaces.
