Artificial Intelligence in Medical Science: A Scientometric Mapping of Indian Authorship Productivity
Author(s): Dr. Praveen B. Hulloli, Dr. Naveen Kumar B M & Dr. Savitha
Abstract: This study presents a comprehensive Scientometric analysis of research productivity in Artificial Intelligence (AI) within the Indian medical sector from 2005 to 2024. Utilizing data from the Web of Science (WoS), the study examines 9,774 papers with 123,043 citations in India and a global output of 123,007 papers. The results show a transformative change in the Indian landscape from being a niche area to a high-priority area. Notably, close to 61% of the total productivity occurred between 2021 and 2024, emphasizing on the post-pandemic surge and the effect of improved digital infrastructure. While the total number of authors increased dramatically from 310 to more than 41,000 during two decades, the Authorship per Capita of 0.20 is indicative of a sustainable professional environment for long-term research persistence. Identifies significant contributors like Suri JS, suggesting that the area is developing in terms of high-influence research where the volume of citations is proportionate to its depth. In the end, government initiatives and growing demand for automated clinical solutions are securing India’s position as a global hub for AI medical innovation.
