Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) is rapidly transforming the healthcare landscape, offering innovative solutions in areas such as medical imaging, drug discovery, and clinical decision support. This comprehensive review examines the current role of GAI in healthcare, its potential benefits, drawbacks, challenges, and future research directions. By synthesizing recent literature and expert perspectives, this review provides a critical analysis of GAI’s impact on healthcare delivery, patient outcomes, and ethical considerations. While GAI shows promise in enhancing diagnostic accuracy, accelerating drug development, and improving healthcare efficiency, it also faces significant challenges related to data privacy, regulatory compliance, and ethical implementation. This review aims to inform healthcare professionals, researchers, and policymakers about the current state and future potential of GAI in healthcare, emphasizing the need for responsible development and deployment of these technologies.
