Abstract
Recent bold, eye-catching headline predictions made by nonradiologists, e.g., "in a few years, radiology will disappear" and "stop training radiologists now," are not only far from reality but also irresponsible and a disservice to the appropriate implementation and adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) technology to health care. It is highly likely and foreseeable that AI will enhance the quality and efficiency of the current clinical practice across many specialties and even render some activities in clinical practice obsolete.
