AI in radiology and interventions: a structured narrative review of workflow automation, accuracy, and efficiency gains of today and what’s coming
To map the potential for AI to automate, improve, or provide new insights in diagnostic imaging and interventional workflows, ensuring safe and equitable implementation by 2030.
Key Findings:
Over 75% of FDA-approved AI devices are in radiology, with 1,247 AI-enabled devices authorized by August 2025.
AI applications in MRI and CT have shown improved diagnostic accuracy and workflow efficiency.
70% of workflow steps in MRI-based cancer screening currently have available AI solutions.
Interpretation:
AI technologies are evolving from experimental tools to clinically validated solutions, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and streamlining workflows, while necessitating ongoing human oversight and validation.
Limitations:
The real-world evidence base for AI remains heterogeneous and context-dependent, impacting generalizability.
Reported error profiles differ between AI and clinicians, necessitating a collaborative approach to mitigate risks.
Conclusion:
AI has the potential to significantly enhance diagnostic imaging and interventional procedures, but its integration must be carefully managed to ensure safety and effectiveness.
