Abstract
The growing volume of clinical imaging and the emergence of artificial intelligence technologies present a unique opportunity to extract additional value from existing imaging data that would otherwise go unused, providing patients with health benefits beyond the original imaging purpose through value-added opportunistic screening. By targeting clinically significant diseases and major public health concerns, opportunistic screening can enhance existing risk assessment, prevention, and treatment paradigms, expanding radiology's reach and impact for individual patients and at the population level.
