Radiologists, clinical oncologists and industry stakeholders gathered May 16 in London to discuss artificial intelligence (AI) in medical imaging and cancer treatment. The all-day event was organized by the Royal College of Radiologists (RCR) with help from the Alan Turing Institute, Health Data Research UK and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council.

Swapping traditional paper checklists for digital alternatives could cut the time physicists and dosimetrists spend on quality assurance (QA) within radiation therapy, researchers have reported in Practical Radiology Oncology. But it’s still unclear whether an electronic approach will really improve patient safety or quality of care.

South Korea’s Ministry of Food and Drug Safety announced this week that, for the very first time, it has approved a medical device that uses artificial intelligence (AI) technology.

Extracting radiomic features from MR images can help radiologists distinguish between benign breast lesions and luminal A breast cancers, according to a new study published by Academic Radiology.

It’s one of the most frequently discussed questions in radiology today: What kind of long-term impact will artificial intelligence (AI) have on radiologists?

Thought leaders within radiology largely agree that the specialty is in a unique position to help lead the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) into clinical practice. But how, exactly, does that happen?
