AI in Clinical Practice: Four Titles Worth Your Library's Attention in 2026

Artificial intelligence is no longer a pilot project in medicine — it's inside clinical documentation, diagnostic imaging, oncology research, and hospital operations. This month CLNZ Books added four titles that map that shift from four different angles: trust and governance in medical language models, AI's growing role in pulmonary diagnostics, precision oncology, and the operational side of agentic AI in healthcare.

Here's what each one covers, and who it's for.

Medical LLMs and AI in Healthcare: Ethics, Trust, and Clinical Applications
IGI Global, Hardcover

As large language models move from experimental tools into routine clinical communication, the real risk shifts from benchmark accuracy to how institutions govern reliance on them day to day. This title addresses that adoption-phase ethics gap directly — essential reading for hospital ethics committees, health law practitioners, and informatics leadership.

Opportunities, Risks, and Future Directions of AI in Pulmonary Medicine
IGI Global, Hardcover

Respiratory medicine has quietly become one of the more AI-mature specialties, with imaging and spirometry analysis now standard research areas. This collection surveys the field's real opportunities alongside its risks — useful for pulmonologists, radiologists, and biomedical engineering researchers.

AI and Precision Medicine in Cancer Management
CRC Press, Hardcover

Oncology R&D is increasingly built around AI-integrated, multidomain data — a shift reflected in this year's major cancer research conferences. This title covers how precision medicine and AI intersect across diagnosis, treatment planning, and drug development.

Agentic Medicine: Multimodal AI Agents in Healthcare
Springer, Hardcover

Agentic AI in healthcare is landing first in operational work — scheduling, triage support, documentation — rather than autonomous diagnosis. This title lays out where agentic systems are actually being deployed today, and the governance questions that come with it.
