Abstract :

The diagnosis of rare diseases presents significant challenges due to their low prevalence, complex symptomatology, and the scarcity of specialized knowledge. However, advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) offer promising solutions to these challenges. This review explores the current state of AI-powered diagnostic tools for rare diseases, focusing on the methodologies, algorithms, and platforms utilized in this emerging field. We examine how AI technologies, such as machine learning, deep learning, and natural language processing, are being integrated into clinical practice to enhance diagnostic accuracy and speed. The research also provides the examples that highlight the successes and limitations of AI in this domain, providing insights into how AI can be harnessed to improve patient outcomes in rare disease diagnosis and management.
