    every one of our chest X-rays in my institution (must be hundreds a day) undergo AI reading in addition to being read by a radiologist. This has resulted in numerous call backs for CTs because of missed small lesions susp for lung cancer.
    Yes in breast imaging also pretty sharp but we don’t have that incorporated automatically like chest films.
    We also are beginning to use AI in pathology slide readings.

    I wonder if our spanky new oh so supposedly awesome Cancer Centre uses this technology? Ever think of an interim pre-retirement move? I’m sure we’d really appreciate you here @bachophile 😊

      Oh, negate my last comment. You don’t want to die here. Truly.

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                @George-K yea I did my surg onc fellowship in Calgary. Loved it.

                my institution invests a lot in innovation ( we r number 10 in worlds smart hospitals https://www.newsweek.com/rankings/worlds-best-smart-hospitals-2025. )

                So we have lots of things like AI stuff in various disciplines

                    Ugg. The guy has gas forming bacteria in his arm. If he doesn’t get debrided soon he will go into septic shock, lose his arm, and probably his life.

                      Exactly. Even I saw it.

                      And, as far as AI goes, there’s no fracture. Nice jog, Grok.
