Can you trust a diagnosis made with the help of Artificial Intelligence?

It may be early days yet, but if the technology and product prove as good as they claim, the benefits for patients will be felt for a long time to come

Every few seconds in India, someone somewhere is undergoing an MRI, a CT scan, an X-ray or some kind of test that requires the services of a radiologist. If one goes to any doctor with virtually any symptom, they usually ask for some scan and some blood tests. Unlike some years ago, it has become almost the regular protocol.

Although in the metros and bigger cities in India, usually your scan will be examined and the problem diagnosed by a qualified expert, the chances of that happening in a small town – or a remote village – are quite slim.
