How is AI helping radiologists analyze magnetic resonance imaging?
Dr. Daryl Eber, founder of 3T Radiology and Research and former president of the Florida Radiology Association, gave us some insight into the massive potential of machine learning software in radiological analysis.
“Over the past few years, we have seen a huge increase in competency of machine learning analysis software. At 3T, we’ve been examining tools like DeepHealth’s AI to provide radiologists with supplemental readings on images. We’re currently in the preliminary stages of researching the accuracy of these tools and how they compare with doctor’s diagnoses.”
Robo-Doctors?
No, The Terminator isn’t going to perform your checkup or administer your vaccine (yet), but machine learning is certainly starting to creep its way into medicine like every other industry. But are we sacrificing precision and accuracy for efficiency as medical care providers begin to rely more on AI?
Well, it depends…
AI-enabled decision support systems, when implemented correctly, can aid in enhancing patient safety by improving error detection, patient stratification, and drug management.
