    Implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) in Radiology is an important topic of discussion. Advances in AI—which encompass machine learning, artificial neural networks, and deep learning—are increasingly being applied to diagnostic imaging. While some posit radiologists are irreplaceable, certain AI proponents have proposed to “stop training radiologists now.” By compiling perspectives from experts from various backgrounds, this book explores the current state of AI efforts in Radiology along with the clinical, financial, technological, and societal perspectives on the role and expected impact of AI in Radiology.
