Artificial intelligence (AI) has become a permanent fixture in medical
practice and if you are attending a recent conference, you will see or hear the
words like deep learning, machine learning or artificial neural networks everywhere.
It is going to forever change how physicians work and will help in
increasing workflow efficiency, improve diagnosis by new algorithm and totally
change the way the patients and physicians interact.
AI is particularly useful in field of radiology, as it can scan thousands
of X-rays or images in minutes, compare it with old reports and will act as a
second set of eyes to confirm the physicians's diagnosis and not replace physicians as feared.
Adam Flanders, M.D., co-director, neuroradiology and vice-chair of
informatics at Jefferson University Hospitals, Philadelphia, and chair of the
RSNA Radiology Informatics Committee, discusses the impact of AI at Radiological Society of North America annual meeting( RSNA) 2017.
