MedInstructAI – A Voice-Based, Multilingual Medical Assistant for Everyone

MedInstructAI is an intelligent assistant that reads, explains, and translates medical reports into simple language with multilingual voice support. Designed for rural and low-resource settings, it bridges the healthcare communication gap using AI.

πŸš€ Introducing MedInstructAI: A Voice-Based, Multilingual Medical Assistant for Everyone 🩺🌍

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been working on something very close to my heart – a project that merges AI, healthcare, and accessibility in one seamless experience.

🎯 Problem

Millions of people in rural or low-resource settings receive medical reports but struggle to understand them. Most reports are filled with complex medical terms, and not everyone has immediate access to a doctor for guidance.

πŸ’‘ My Solution – MedInstructAI

An intelligent medical assistant that:

  • βœ… Reads medical reports (PDFs, text, and even handwritten images!)
  • βœ… Understands the medical content using a Large Language Model (LLM)
  • βœ… Explains everything in simple, layman-friendly English
  • βœ… Translates the explanation to regional languages like Hindi, Tamil, Bengali, etc.
  • βœ… Speaks the answer out loud β€” helping even those who cannot read
  • βœ… Allows users to ask follow-up questions via voice or text
  • βœ… Flags critical risks (like "stroke", "heart attack", "tumor") and alerts the user
  • πŸŽ₯ Demo Video:

    πŸ”¬ Tech Stack

    I built this system using:

  • Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
  • Language Modeling (LLMs)
  • Voice Synthesis
  • Multilingual Translation
  • A friendly interface for real-time interaction
  • πŸŽ“ Academic & Personal Motivation

    This project builds upon my passion for AI, healthcare accessibility*, and my ongoing journey in the field of *Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning at Chandigarh University.

    🌟 Impact

    I truly believe MedInstructAI has the potential to assist:

  • Rural healthcare workers
  • Elderly patients
  • Non-English speakers
  • who are often left behind in the digital revolution.

    πŸ’¬ Let’s Connect
