Researchers discuss key parameters for the assessment, implementation and post-implementation monitoring of emerging artificial intelligence (AI) tools in radiology practices large and small.

A recent study found the use of an alert and a request for more clinical information in a multisite health system’s electronic health record (EHR) system led to a 12 percent reduction in contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) exams per day and a 15.2 percent reduction in orders for CT with contrast media per day.

Viz.ai said the Viz Subdural Hematoma (SDH) artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm provides automatic detection of acute and chronic subdural hemorrhages, facilitating timely triage and treatment of patients.
