Abstract :
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies are increasingly embedded within healthcare systems worldwide, offering promising advances in diagnosis, treatment, and operational efficiency. However, the rapid integration of AI raises complex ethical and legal questions that vary across global regions due to differing regulatory landscapes, cultural values, and healthcare infrastructures. This paper provides a thorough examination of the ethical dilemmas and legal challenges associated with AI deployment in healthcare from a global standpoint. It explores issues such as patient privacy, algorithmic transparency, bias and fairness, liability, and informed consent. By reviewing international regulatory frameworks and guidelines, the paper highlights the diversity of approaches to AI governance and the implications for cross-border healthcare applications. Through comparative analysis and case studies, the paper underscores the necessity for harmonized policies, interdisciplinary collaboration, and proactive ethical oversight to ensure that AI adoption in healthcare is both responsible and equitable on a global scale.
