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.

Clinical decision support has little impact on image-ordering behaviors, single-center study finds

CDS only added 24 seconds to ordering clinicians' workflows and rarely led to these individuals changing their radiology request, experts wrote in JACR

A study calls into question the safety of using popular foundation-model AI applications in a medical setting.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is being developed to help make cardiovascular clinical trials more efficient, lead to faster advances in patient care, and bring possible new treatments to heart patients more quickly. The major cardiac research center of Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai announced today that it signed a memorandum of understanding with the Chiba Institute of Technology (CIT) to collaborate on using AI to enhance cardiovascular disease research.
