The human-in-the-loop: an evaluation of pathologists' interaction with artificial intelligence in clinical practice.

Aims: One of the major drivers of the adoption of digital pathology in clinical practice is the possibility of introducing digital image analysis (DIA) to assist with diagnostic tasks. This offers potential increases in accuracy, reproducibility, and efficiency. Whereas stand-alone DIA has great potential benefit for research, little is known about the effect of DIA assistance in clinical use.
