The article addresses the research problem concerning the ethical and legal conditions and limitations of using artificial intelligence in healthcare, with particular emphasis on the processing of medical data. It puts forward the hypothesis that the implementation of AI-based solutions in healthcare systems while simultaneously ensuring high standards of data protection and algorithmic transparency can significantly improve the quality, accessibility, and efficiency of medical services without infringing patients’ fundamental rights. The aim of the study is to identify the key benefits and challenges associated with the use of artificial intelligence in the collection, analysis, and utilisation of health data, and to indicate the legal and ethical frameworks that enable the sustainable deployment of these technologies. The methodology is based on a dogmatic-legal analysis of personal data protection regulations as well as a review of the relevant literature. The article also applies a case-study approach with regard to selected practical applications of artificial intelligence, such as diagnostic decision-support systems, electronic medical records, and predictive algorithms. The findings indicate that the effective implementation of artificial intelligence in healthcare requires not only compliance with legal requirements on data protection, but also the adoption of ethical design principles, including transparency, accountability, non-discrimination, and human oversight of decision-making processes.
