Researchers emphasize doctors must direct the integration of AI into clinical medicine to prioritize patient welfare.
Key Details
- 1Researchers from Brazil argue AI should move from administrative to direct patient care tasks under physician guidance.
- 2Successful digital transformation depends on clinicians actively leading and creating medical technology solutions.
- 3Wearables and automated AI can enable dynamic, personalized follow-up but need clinical oversight to ensure efficacy and patient benefit.
- 4Well-integrated AI systems can improve data prioritization, reduce irrelevant information, and support timely decision-making.
- 5The authors stress that doctors' unique knowledge of patient care and system complexity is vital to realizing AI's potential without sacrificing the doctor–patient relationship.
Why It Matters
Physician-led incorporation of AI is critical for maintaining high-quality, ethical patient care as digital tools become more pervasive. This stance has important implications for radiology, where imaging AI must enhance workflows and outcomes without undermining clinical judgement or the central doctor–patient relationship.
