ADP offers care teams multiple benefits not seen with traditional wire-based physiologic assessments. A roundtable of 17 expert clinicians discussed the topic at length, and their findings were used to develop a new manuscript published in JSCAI.

Walter Wiggins, MD, PhD, a neuroradiologist and director of clinical AI at Mosaic, explains how large language model (LLM) artificial intelligence is increasingly being used in radiology to extract structured data from narrative radiology reports to improve workflow, and to help validate, monitor and improve other AI tools being used in clinical practice.

This type of tracking helps a practice understand how radiologists interact with AI, whether they're appropriately rejecting incorrect results, and if the technology is improving detection of important findings.
