INTRODUCTION

Artificial intelligence (AI) has shown great potential in revolutionizing healthcare by enabling more accurate diagnoses, personalized treatments, and efficient healthcare delivery. However, the lack of transparency and interpretability in AI algorithms poses challenges for clinicians, patients, and regulatory bodies. Explainable AI (XAI) seeks to address these challenges by providing clear explanations for the decisions made by AI models, thereby increasing trust, understanding, and accountability in healthcare settings.

The increasing adoption of AI in healthcare has raised concerns about the "black box" nature of these algorithms. Clinicians and patients often find it difficult to trust and rely on AI-driven recommendations without understanding the underlying reasoning. Moreover, regulatory bodies require transparency to ensure patient safety, ethical compliance, and regulatory standards. XAI offers a solution to bridge the gap between the inherent complexity of AI models and the need for understandable decision-making processes in healthcare. The primary objectives of this research paper are to:
