The Medical AI Breakthrough: How Microsoft’s MAI-DxO Achieves 85% Diagnostic Accuracy A 29-year-old woman was hospitalized with a sore throat, tonsil swelling, and bleeding. Antibiotics failed to resolve her symptoms. While human physicians averaged just 20% diagnostic accuracy on such complex cases, Microsoft’s AI system correctly identified “embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma” at one-third the typical cost. In emergency rooms worldwide, physicians face a relentless challenge: making accurate diagnoses under time pressure while balancing testing costs. Traditional AI diagnostic tools have struggled to replicate the iterative reasoning of human doctors—until now. Microsoft Research’s breakthrough MAI-DxO (Medical AI Diagnostic Orchestrator) system has redefined medical …
