Summary

Disagreements between radiologists and AI in interpreting imaging studies raise concerns about diagnostic accuracy, medical decision-making, and patient safety. This review examines how differences in perceptual learning can lead to such discrepancies. While AI may result in earlier disease detection and non-invasive lesion analysis, it also presents risks like demographic and technical bias and lack of transparent reasoning.
