💬 From the Frontlines
“The next wave of AI in radiology isn’t about reading images — it’s about orchestrating the entire radiology workflow. We’re seeing a shift from point solutions to platforms that triage studies, surface relevant priors, generate preliminary reports, and automate follow-ups. The focus is moving from accuracy to efficiency, productivity, and care coordination at scale.”
