A neonatal seizure algorithm attributes an infant's seizures to birth asphyxia and never reaches the real cause, a profound hypoglycemia produced by the local practice of discarding colostrum. No Electronic Health Record was built to record that practice. The model was not technically flawed, it had simply entered a world shaped by silent data, the social and clinical factors that never reach a structured dataset.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor AI architects, technical leaders, and senior data scientists, the challenge is no longer accuracy. It is building systems that survive real-world complexity. This book bridges code and clinical care with a practical playbook for safety, governance, and implementation. Each chapter closes with a working instrument, a procedure you can run on Monday against a system you already own. The Silence Audit surfaces the determinants your dataset was never going to contain. The Validation Ladder carries a model from retrospective testing through shadow mode to silent trials without skipping a rung. Each instrument arrives with an honest account of what it cannot see, because a method that claims to catch everything is the first thing that will fail you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're navigating FDA and EU regulation or arriving from a technical background, \u003cem\u003eMachine Meets Medicine\u003c\/em\u003e is a field guide to the distance between a model that performs and a model that protects. Medicine's oldest instruction has not moved.

It provides the frameworks they need to manage risk, safety, and real clinical value beyond accuracy metrics. It also serves Clinical Informatics professionals such as CMIOs, physician‑builders, and health IT leaders who bridge clinical operations and engineering, offering a shared “translation layer” to convert clinical nuance into actionable technical requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDr. Lakshmi Vennela Chowdary Kaza \u003c\/strong\u003eis a physician-scientist working on the validation and governance of clinical AI systems. She holds an MBBS with Distinction and the Paediatrics Gold Medal from Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore, and is completing her Post-Graduate Diploma in AI\/ML at IIT Bombay, where she was awarded an AP grade, the highest distinction, in Deep Learning and GenAI. She also holds an Advanced Certificate in AI in Healthcare from the Indian Institute of Science.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDr Kaza’s research examines where clinical AI systems fail under real-world conditions, spanning radiomics, scanner harmonisation, and the robustness of frontier models in medicine. Her work on confidence-gated survival prediction in paediatric high-grade gliomas was accepted for presentation at RSNA 2026, and she is a co-author on the RadLE (Radiology's Last Exam) benchmark presented at RSNA Cutting Edge 2025. She has filed a patent on multimodal screening for metabolic syndrome. She brings both clinical insight and technical expertise to the challenge of building healthcare AI systems that work responsibly in real-world contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11 September 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApress\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApress\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9798868834301\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Apress","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55562831134860,"sku":"9798868834301","price":34.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9798868834301","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
