Abstract

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms in radiology capable of detecting urgent findings have gained significant traction in recent years, but the impact of these algorithms on real-world clinical practice remains unclear with need for scientific investigation. Our study investigates the diagnostic accuracy and impact on radiologist report turnaround times of an FDA-approved AI tool for pneumothorax (PTx) detection on inpatient chest X-rays (CXR) in our institution's radiology practice at a large academic medical center.
