Preface to first edition of “A Treatise on the Diseases of the Chest, in which they are described according to their Anatomical Characters, and their Diagnosis established on a new Principle by means of Acoustick Instruments”, John Forbes M.D. 1821
“That it will ever come into general use, notwithstanding its value, I am extremely doubtful;
because its beneficial application requires much time, and gives a good deal of trouble both to the patient and
the practitioner; and because its whole hue and character is foreign, and opposed to all our habits and
associations”.

“Medicine has become too complex. Only about 20% of the knowledge clinicians use today is evidence-based.”
Steven Shapiro
Chief Medical & Scientific Officer University Pittsburgh Medical Center

2. Strategies for coping with information overload. Smith.R. BMJ 2010
17 years < 5 hr / mth
81% of physicians spend < 5 hours / month reading
medical journals
“takes an average of 17 years to implement
clinical research results in daily practice” 1

Hard Questions?
Computer programs are explicit, fast and exacting in their calculations with numbers and symbols….But Natural Language is implicit, highly contextual, ambiguous and often imprecise.
Where was X born?One day, from among his city views of Ulm, Otto chose a water color to send to Albert
Einstein as a remembrance of Einstein´s birthplace.

Analyzes large volumes of unstructured
and structured data
Combines large amounts of unstructured data with structured data to be analyzed together
Interprets and understands natural language questions
Understands ambiguous and imprecise questions using sophisticated natural language algorithms
Generates and evaluates hypotheses and quantifies confidence in answers
Identifies many answers to questions with evidence to "explain" rationale for answers
Supports iterativedialogue to refine results
Enables iterative and interactive question and answering to refine and improve results
Adapts and learns to improve results over time
Learns from additional evidence, additional questions and mistakes to improve accuracy over time
Watson’s Five Core Capabilities

Business problem: Need better individualized cancer treatment plans
Solution: • Suggestions to help inform oncologists’ decisions
based on 600K+ pieces of evidence and 2M pages of text from 42 publications
• Analyzes patient data against thousands of historical cases and trained through 5000+ Memorial Sloan-
Kettering MD and analyst hours• Evolves with the fast-changing field
Attacking the cause of one in four deaths
Watson helping oncologists treat cancer patients

Business problem: No easy way to search eligibility criteria at point of care to match patients to clinical
trialsSolution:
• Identify all the relevant clinical attributes needed to search across clinical trials for a disease
• Instantly check the patient’s eligibility• Provide an ordered list of relevant clinical trials with the degree of match
• Provide criteria (inclusion / exclusion) level evaluation based on the patient’s attributes• Dynamically re-evaluate the case based on changes to clinical attributes
Overall only 3%1 of cancer patients are on clinical
trials
Watson quickly matches patients to clinical trials
