Machines vs Doctors: How Well Can AI Detect Disease in Medical Scans Compared with Doctors?
Artificial intelligence is increasingly being used to analyse medical scans, detect signs of disease and flag suspicious findings. This paper examines how its performance compares with that of doctors and whether strong results from medical imaging studies are enough to justify its use in hospitals.
