There, in recent years, they have begun using A.I. to sharpen images, automate routine tasks, identify medical abnormalities and predict disease. A.I. can also serve as \u201ca second set of eyes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cBut would it replace radiologists? We didn\u2019t think so,\u201d said Dr. Matthew Callstrom, the Mayo Clinic\u2019s chair of radiology, recalling the 2016 prediction. \u201cWe knew how hard it is and all that is involved.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Computer scientists, labor experts and policymakers have long debated how A.I. will ultimately play out in the work force. Will it be a clever helper, enhancing human performance, or a robotic surrogate, displacing millions of workers?<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The debate has intensified as the leading-edge technology behind chatbots appears to be <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/14\/technology\/why-im-feeling-the-agi.html\" title=\"\">improving faster than anticipated<\/a>. Leaders at OpenAI, Anthropic and other companies in Silicon Valley now predict that A.I. will eclipse humans in most cognitive tasks within a few years. But many researchers foresee a more gradual transformation in line with seismic inventions of the past, like electricity or the internet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The predicted extinction of radiologists provides a telling case study. So far, A.I. is proving to be a powerful medical tool to increase efficiency and magnify human abilities, rather than take anyone\u2019s job.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">When it comes to developing and deploying A.I. in medicine, radiology has been a prime target. Of the more than 1,000 A.I. applications approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in medicine, about three-fourths are in radiology. A.I. typically excels at identifying and measuring a specific abnormality, like a lung lesion or a breast lump.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThere\u2019s been amazing progress, but these A.I. tools for the most part look for one thing,\u201d said Dr. Charles E. Kahn Jr., a professor of radiology at the University of Pennsylvania\u2019s Perelman School of Medicine and editor of the journal <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/pubs.rsna.org\/journal\/ai\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Radiology: Artificial Intelligence<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Radiologists do far more than study images. They advise other doctors and surgeons, talk to patients, write reports and analyze medical records. After identifying a suspect cluster of tissue in an organ, they interpret what it might mean for an individual patient with a particular medical history, tapping years of experience.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Predictions that A.I. will steal jobs often \u201cunderestimate the complexity of the work that people actually do \u2014 just as radiologists do a lot more than reading scans,\u201d said David Autor, a labor economist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">At the Mayo Clinic, A.I. tools have been researched, developed and tailored to fit the work routines of busy doctors. The staff has grown 55 percent since Dr. Hinton\u2019s forecast of doom, to more than 400 radiologists.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In 2016, spurred by the warning and advances in A.I.-fueled image recognition, the leaders of the radiology department assembled a group to assess the technology\u2019s potential impact.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWe thought the first thing we should do is use this technology to make us better,\u201d Dr. Callstrom recalled. \u201cThat was our first goal.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-5\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">They decided to invest. Today, the radiology department has an A.I. team of 40 people including A.I. scientists, radiology researchers, data analysts and software engineers. They have developed a series of A.I. tools, from tissue analyzers to disease predictors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-6\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">That team works with specialists like Dr. Theodora Potretzke, who focuses on the kidneys, bladder and reproductive organs. She describes the radiologist\u2019s role as \u201ca doctor for other doctors,\u201d clearly communicating the imaging results, assisting and advising.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Potretzke has collaborated on an A.I. tool that measures the volume of kidneys. Kidney growth, when combined with cysts, can predict decline in renal function before it shows up in blood tests. In the past, she measured kidney volume largely by hand, with the equivalent of a ruler on the screen and guesswork. Results varied, and the chore was a time-consuming.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Potretzke served as a consultant, end user and tester while working with the department\u2019s A.I. team. She helped design the software program, which has color coding for different tissues, and checked the measurements.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Today, she brings up an image on her computer screen and clicks an icon, and the kidney volume measurement appears instantly. It saves her 15 to 30 minutes each time she examines a kidney image, and it is consistently accurate.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cIt\u2019s a good example of something I\u2019m very comfortable handing off to A.I. for efficiency and accuracy,\u201d Dr. Potretzke said. \u201cIt can augment, assist and quantify, but I am not in a place where I give up interpretive conclusions to the technology.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-7\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Down the hall, Dr. Francis Baffour, a staff radiologist, explained the varied ways that A.I. had been applied to the field, often in the background. The makers of M.R.I. and CT scanners use A.I. algorithms to speed up taking images and to clean them up, he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A.I. can also automatically identify images showing the highest probability of an abnormal growth, essentially telling the radiologist, \u201cLook here first.\u201d Another program scans images for blood clots in the heart or lungs, even when the medical focus may be elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cA.I. is everywhere in our workflow now,\u201d Dr. Baffour said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Overall, the Mayo Clinic is using more than 250 A.I. models, both developed internally and licensed from suppliers. The radiology and cardiology departments are the largest consumers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In some cases, the new technology opens a door to insights that are beyond human ability. One A.I. model analyzes data from electrocardiograms to predict patients more likely to develop atrial fibrillation, a heart-rhythm abnormality.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A research project in radiology employs an A.I. algorithm to discern subtle changes in shape and texture of the pancreas to detect cancer up to two years before conventional diagnoses. The Mayo Clinic team is working with other medical institutions to further test the algorithm on more data.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-8\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe math can see what the human eye cannot,\u201d said Dr. John Halamka, president of the Mayo Clinic Platform, who oversees the health system\u2019s digital initiatives.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-9\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Halamka, an A.I. optimist, believes the technology will transform medicine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cFive years from now, it will be malpractice not to use A.I.,\u201d he said. \u201cBut it will be humans and A.I. working together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Hinton agrees. In retrospect, he believes he spoke too broadly in 2016, he said in an email. He didn\u2019t make clear that he was speaking purely about image analysis, and was wrong on timing but not the direction, he added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In a few years, most medical image interpretation will be done by \u201ca combination of A.I. and a radiologist, and it will make radiologists a whole lot more efficient in addition to improving accuracy,\u201d Dr. Hinton said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/05\/14\/technology\/ai-jobs-radiologists-mayo-clinic.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nine years ago, one of the world\u2019s leading artificial intelligence scientists singled out an endangered occupational species. \u201cPeople should stop<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":25642,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[213,123,844,4149,4148,1355,1035,3399,551,124,268],"class_list":["post-25641","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-technology","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-computers-and-the-internet","tag-doctors","tag-geoffrey-e","tag-hinton","tag-hospitals","tag-innovation","tag-mayo-clinic","tag-medicine-and-health","tag-mobile-applications","tag-research"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>A.I.
