Closing the loop for AI-ready radiology

Abstract

BACKGROUND: In recent years, AI has made significant advancements in medical diagnosis and prognosis. However, the incorporation of AI into clinical practice is still challenging and under-appreciated. We aim to demonstrate a possible vertical integration approach to close the loop for AI-ready radiology. METHOD: This study highlights the importance of two-way communication for AI-assisted radiology. As a key part of the methodology, it demonstrates the integration of AI systems into clinical practice with structured reports and AI visualization, giving more insight into the AI system. By integrating cooperative lifelong learning into the AI system, we ensure the long-term effectiveness of the AI system, while keeping the radiologist in the loop. RESULTS: We demonstrate the use of lifelong learning for AI systems by incorporating AI visualization and structured reports. We evaluate Memory Aware-Synapses and Rehearsal approach and find that both approaches work in practice. Furthermore, we see the advantage of lifelong learning algorithms that do not require the storing or maintaining of samples from previous datasets. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, incorporating AI into the clinical routine of radiology requires a two-way communication approach and seamless integration of the AI system, which we achieve with structured reports and visualization of the insight gained by the model. Closing the loop for radiology leads to successful integration, enabling lifelong learning for the AI system, which is crucial for sustainable long-term performance. KEY POINTS: · The integration of AI systems into the clinical routine with structured reports and AI visualization.. · Two-way communication between AI and radiologists is necessary to enable AI that keeps the radiologist in the loop.. · Closing the loop enables lifelong learning, which is crucial for long-term, high-performing AI in radiology..
