The link between Physical Therapy (PT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an emerging area of interest in healthcare. AI is being integrated into PT to enhance patient care in several ways:Diagnosis and Assessment: AI technology assists physical therapists in making the diagnostic process more efficient and accurate. It can help in analyzing patient data for predictive analytics and creating optimal treatment plansRemote Monitoring: Physical therapists can use wearable devices to monitor patients’ progress. AI algorithms analyze data on movement, heart rate, and more, providing insights that help therapists modify treatment plans as neededExercise Precision and Discipline: AI can offer real-time video instructions combined with pose and joint angle detections to give feedback, which helps in improving exercise precision and disciplinePersonalization of Care: AI contributes to making physiotherapy more personalized by integrating cognitive behavioral therapy and virtual reality into precise treatment regimens
