Artificial Intelligence Embedded Imaging Modality

The British Institute of Radiology

In the third blog of her series on AI and the radiographer, Shamie Kumar explores the impact on the radiographer when AI is integrated within an imaging modality. The question to explore in this blog is when AI is integrated within an imaging modality itself and how that may impact a radiographer.

WBCT Better Detects Changes in Knee Joint Space Width than X-Ray in OA Patients

CurveBeam AI

Key Points: Weight Bearing (WB) radiographs are limited by 1) their 2D nature and 2) knee positioning. X-Ray (XR) beam angle differs by person and can be unreliable. Weight Bearing CT (WBCT) imaging provides three dimensional (3D) images of the knee compartment that could allow for earlier detection of osteoarthritis (OA).
