- To describe current challenges and opportunities in the deployment of artificial intelligence applications.
- To explore how radiologists can influence AI deployment in the clinical environment.
- Talk 2: Artificial Intelligence and the chest radiograph – developing and validating a comprehensive diagnostic tool
Rapid advances in artificial intelligence modelling have led to the development of new and exciting AI tools to assist radiologists. Developing a comprehensive chest X-ray diagnostic tool is a complex process, requiring consideration of clinical use cases, workflow integration and hidden stratification. Dr Catherine Jones discusses the process of developing and validating the most comprehensive chest X-ray diagnostic tool available.
Learning objectives:
- To understand the commonly used terms relating to artificial intelligence in radiology.
- To gain a deeper insight into the development of AI for the interpretation of chest radiographs.
- To develop a greater understanding of the clinical use cases of chest radiograph AI.
