The share of U.S. doctors using AI in practice has doubled, yet many are hesitant about patients using AI for interpreting radiology results.
Key Details
- 1AI use among U.S. physicians rose from 38% in 2023 to 81% in 2024 per AMA survey.
- 2AMA polled nearly 1,700 physicians across various specialties and practice settings.
- 346% of respondents said they would never or rarely want patients to use AI to interpret radiology reports.
- 4Physicians cite AI's promise in reducing burnout and aiding decision-making but urge technology should enhance, not replace, doctors.
- 5Survey builds on previous years' data to track trends in augmented intelligence adoption.
Why It Matters
Rapid growth in AI adoption signals its integration into everyday clinical workflows, including radiology. However, hesitancy regarding patient use of AI for interpreting imaging reveals ongoing concerns about accuracy, safety, and physician oversight in radiology AI applications.
