Artificial Intelligence Applications in Radiology - Joshua Warner, MD, PhD, CIIP and Alan B. McMillan, PhD
Series Overview
This bi-monthly one-hour educational series will connect frontline clinicians, champions in artificial intelligence (AI) applications in healthcare, and researchers to learn about and discuss leveraging AI technologies in healthcare settings within UW Health and beyond, rapidly evolving AI solutions, and AI governance.
Intended Audience
The primary audience for this educational series is physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, registered nurses, and researchers affiliated with UW Health. Other members of the clinical team will benefit from participation.
Learning Objectives
As a result of participation in this educational activity, members of the healthcare team will increase their ability to:
- Identify key opportunities for artificial intelligence (AI) in the radiology process lifecycle.
- Choose a general AI algorithm framework to solve problems based on the type of data available for input and output.
- Define foundation models (including the role of embeddings), contrast them with traditional AI, and describe their capabilities, limitations, and potential clinical applications in radiology via adaptation.
- Critically assess clinical use cases derived from foundation models, performance evidence, safety considerations, workflow integration strategies, and the impact on radiologist decision-making and efficiency.
