Strength and Limitations of Artificial Intelligence in Radiology
| Strengths | Limitations |
|---|---|
| ● Automated lesions screening, detection, segmentation, and characterization by using input data from other modalities (eg, x-ray, CT, MRI). | ● AI-based applications not familiar with the global context of patients. |
| ● Classify images based on the presence or absence of abnormality. | ● Training data time, cost, and resource consuming. |
| ● Extract additional data from previous detected abnormality (eg, lesion) | ● Lack the power of supervised algorithms. |
| ● Identification of anatomical landmarks or organs, which are important for both image acquisition and analysis. | ● Lack of accurate validation of the AI applications during training which may lead to random noise than the actual data. |
| ● Detecting scan planes for rapid examination planning and minimum interindividual variability, bias and scanning time. | ● Lack of specific multidisciplinary road maps for AI-based application implementation in medical imaging field. |
