The Promise of AI for Image-Driven Medicine: Qualitative Interview Study of Radiologists' and Pathologists' Perspectives.

Background: Image-driven specialisms such as radiology and pathology are at the forefront of medical artificial intelligence (AI) innovation. Many believe that AI will lead to significant shifts in professional roles, so it is vital to investigate how professionals view the pending changes that AI innovation will initiate and incorporate their views in ongoing AI developments.

Objective: Our study aimed to gain insights into the perspectives and wishes of radiologists and pathologists regarding the promise of AI.

Making Pathologists Ready for the New Artificial Intelligence Era: Changes in Required Competencies.

In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in developing and using artificial intelligence (AI) models in pathology. Although pathologists generally have a positive attitude toward AI, they report a lack of knowledge and skills regarding how to use it in practice. Furthermore, it remains unclear what skills pathologists would require to use AI adequately and responsibly.

Ethical guidance for reporting and evaluating claims of AI outperforming human doctors.

Claims of AI outperforming medical practitioners are under scrutiny, as the evidence supporting many of these claims is not convincing or transparently reported. These claims often lack specificity, contextualization, and empirical grounding. In this comment, we offer constructive ethical guidance that can benefit authors, journal editors, and peer reviewers when reporting and evaluating findings in studies comparing AI to physician performance.

Integrating artificial intelligence in pathology: a qualitative interview study of users' experiences and expectations.

Recent progress in the development of artificial intelligence (AI) has sparked enthusiasm for its potential use in pathology. As pathology labs are currently starting to shift their focus towards AI implementation, a better understanding how AI tools can be optimally aligned with the medical and social context of pathology daily practice is urgently needed. Strikingly, studies often fail to mention the ways in which AI tools should be integrated in the decision-making processes of pathologists, nor do they address how this can be achieved in an ethically sound way.
