Report authoring Clinical Decision Support OCR of referrals NLP comprehension Automatic Triage Automatic Protocolling (LLM) Smart booking based on patient factors Interactive advice for appointment (tra ff ic etc) Optimal patient positioning (Camera, Object recognition) Scan acceleration Synthetic upscaling hyperresolution MR Give older scanners new powers Pre-reading for safety Simple full interpretation (fracture, OA) Assisted reading (ACL / meniscus, cartilage) Early AI result pre-report
satisfaction: less rollercoaster medicine • Reduced litigation (missed fracture) • £ 35,417,800 (NHS Resolutions) • £6,000 - 14,000 per case • AI solution cost • £20,000 annual Financial Case
• Pattern of compartmental affect • Severity objectively • Joint space narrowing • Sclerotic changes • Osteophytes • Use cases? • Industrial? for implant selection advice: What do you think? Automated x-ray labelling
Deeper analysis: microarchitecture helps avoid adjacent degenerative sclerosis • Comparison of skeletal status against statistical data • Automated therapeutic recommendation • Automates reporting of tedium • Can be trained to add advice which is the pinnacle of radiology reporting • Works well: constrained scope
many other purposes covering the trunk • “Always review the bones” • Tool to automate bone review • Detect morphology of osteoporosis • Detect vertebral fractures • Measure bone density from CT
• Labelled results delivered to PACS • No user interaction needed with tool • Intracranial haemorrhage (types, location, chronicity etc…) • Mass lesion, mass effect • Hydrocephalus • Vasogenic Oedema First read support
• Labelled results delivered to PACS • No user interaction needed with tool • Intracranial haemorrhage (types, location, chronicity etc…) • Mass lesion, mass effect • Hydrocephalus • Vasogenic Oedema • Second eyes for radiology (on-call) • Fast front line opinion (ED, acute med, ICU) First read support
£73: average cost to outsource overnight • AI tool: £30,000/yr • 8 CT brains per night (quiet place) • Paid for in 52 days • Cost saving on outsourcing • Immediate results (1-2 mins) • Pressure to report in house next day Economic model
CT perfusion • Segmentation of vessels • Segmentation of suspected • Ischaemic penumbra • Established infarcts • Empower stroke intervention • Neuroradiologists f inite • Stroke time precious 24/7 Stroke imaging Very compelling use case
• All chest x-rays (within 1-minute) • Labelled images delivered to PACS • 124 different f indings (“AI features”) • Region level feature parity • Important safety concern Regional Deployment
my summary • Human in the loop always required • Reporting must be human issued: responsibility • AI is for clinical decision support, not f inal report • Involve medical physics expert throughout process • Implement audit of the system to assure quality and safety and detect performance drift
