My opinion: AI will not take over Radiology from one to the next, but, rather, computers will at first work with radiologists and then slowly take over more tasks which they are able todo more efficiently. At first AI programs will make their impact in small domains (such as now in mamorgaphy and chest CT scans) where the images have rather constrained statistics. Right now companies like R2 and such suggest the computer will act as a second reader, working in conjuction with radiologists. But as these programs become more efficient, they will become more reliable and ultimately supplant radiologists (again only in certain domains). A general-purpose AI reader is far off in the future, maybe 30-40 years.
my 2 cents ...
I agree.
