Elad Walach[email protected]AI3 predictions for radiology AI in 2021With virtual RSNA 2020 over and the year drawing to a close, Elad Walach of artificial intelligence (AI) developer Aidoc has taken the time to share his predictions about trends in the world of radiology AI for next year.December 14, 2020AI5 reasons why imaging AI is different from CADArtificial intelligence (AI) in medical imaging is on the rise and already becoming part of the standard of care. But with all the hype, one must ask: Is next-generation imaging AI simply a new take on computer-aided detection/diagnosis (CAD)? Aidoc CEO Elad Walach presents five reasons why AI is fundamentally different.October 28, 2018AI3 ways to ensure AI algorithms are really workingArtificial intelligence (AI), deep learning, and related technologies have emerged as solutions that can really make a difference in almost every medical field imaginable, from radiology to pharmaceuticals to diagnosis. But the question remains: How do we know that these algorithms are actually working?August 5, 2018Page 1 of 1Top StoriesCardiac ImagingECR: Cardiac imaging is at the 'heart' of precision medicineThe heart beats 2.5 billion times in a person's lifetime and "never has a day off," presenter Michelle Williams, PhD, noted.UltrasoundUltrasound MinnieCast, Episode 3: Focused ultrasound brings hope to patientsWomens ImagingECR: LLMs help patients understand breast imaging reportsCTDL segmentation of chest muscle volume shows promise for COPD patientsCareersHPI: Workforce attrition higher in radiology subspecialties
