AI is unlikely to completely replace radiologists in the foreseeable future, but it will increasingly augment their work. AI-powered tools excel at analyzing medical images, such as X-rays and MRIs, to detect abnormalities like tumors or fractures with high accuracy. However, radiologists provide context, clinical judgment, and patient communication that AI cannot fully replicate. Instead of replacing radiologists, AI is expected to act as a valuable assistant, improving diagnostic accuracy, reducing workload, and enabling faster decision-making. The integration of AI in radiology will enhance efficiency rather than eliminate the need for human expertise.
