Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming a crucial component of healthcare to help augment physicians and make them more efficient. In medical imaging, it is helping radiologists more efficiently manage PACS worklists, enable structured reporting, auto detect injuries and diseases, and to pull in relevant prior exams and patient data. In cardiology, AI is helping automate tasks and measurements on imaging and in reporting systems, guides novice echo users to improve imaging and accuracy, and can risk stratify patients. AI includes deep learning algorithms, machine learning, computer-aided detection (CAD) systems, and convolutional neural networks.

Researchers develop program that can spot falsified radiology reports written by AI
“With generative AI becoming more capable of producing remarkably convincing radiology reports, there’s a greater risk of fabricated reports being used to falsify medical histories and support fraudulent claims,” the team cautioned.
Imaging evaluations and PCI planning: Heartflow announces ‘tremendous progress’ for AI portfolio
Heartflow's AI technologies are at the center of multiple ACC.26 presentations. In addition, the company announced, the first patient was enrolled into the NAVIGATE-PCI registry.
Radiologists help develop AI tool that detects patients in danger of domestic violence
Mass General experts have created a program to pinpoint intimate partner violence, using inputs including radiology reports, imaging and diagnoses to aid in detection.
Microsoft launches new version of Copilot AI that draws from medical records to answer questions
Copilot Health will be able to use information such as medical histories, lab results and data from wearables to answer complicated healthcare questions. Microsoft said patients who use the app can rest assured all data shared with the AI is encrypted and can be deleted at any time.
AI use among American doctors has doubled, new AMA survey says
However, physicians are expressing reservations about letting patients use the technology to interpret their radiology results, according to a new survey.

AI use among American doctors has doubled, new AMA survey says

However, physicians are expressing reservations about letting patients use the technology to interpret their radiology results, according to a new survey.

The Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) is urging federal policymakers to ensure physicians play a central role in guiding the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into clinical care, while also raising questions about liability as the technology expands across healthcare.

AI is transforming patient care—and cardiologists have a critical role to play

While the Trump administration is pushing to accelerate clinical AI adoption, SCAI has emphasized that physicians must guide how the technology is implemented and governed.
