Technology has a significant influence on our way of life, and since it can influence how science and technology are applied in the future, research on artificial intelligence is crucial for human potential and health in the medical field. This article examines the research output in the field of artificial intelligence in the medical field. According to the Web of Science (WoS) database, 9,774 articles with 123,043 citations were published in India and around the world between 2005 and 2024, out of a total of 123,007 publications. The USA topped the list of the top 20 nations in the world for artificial intelligence research in the medical field with 28,124 (22.86%) published papers, followed by China with 19,122 (15.55%) and India with 9,774 (7.95%), which together account for nearly 8% of the global total. A total of 2,104 (21.53%) papers were published in 2023, the most in the Indian nation; 1,309 (13.39%) articles were published in 2021, but 26,356 (21.42%) citations with 20.13 ACPP were the highest. During the study period from 2005 to 2024, all six years had an RQI greater than 1, with the greatest RQI of 3.75 in 2005 and the lowest RQI of 1.55 in 2007. The analysis found that between 2005 and 2024, there was a steady rise in the quantity of publications on medical science research on artificial intelligence.
