I already immediately left a veterinarian for using AI as part of its xray diagnosis process, which may even be somewhat acceptable since computer vision is relatively mature. Fuck if I’m lasting 5 mins with a human doctor that utters the letters “AI.”
I can’t speak for veterinary, but in dentistry AI can be problematic because:
A) it really over-diagnoses - it’s very very sensitive, meaning that it identifies things that aren’t necessarily clinically relevant
B) it does not compare to previous radiographs, so it cannot give reasonable clinical judgement on whether decay is active or arrested.
It could be a helpful tool to give you a laundry list of places to check. However, I’ve used demo software and did not find it added anything for me, although I have 15 years experience. You still need to use your clinical judgement.
I do worry about the younger clinicians being over-reliant on it, as they have it pushed on them by multi-practice dental corporations.
New fear unlocked
Ya an LLM is very different than a vision based machine learning /trained visual model on something specific like x-rays.
Now, if its just a LLM looking at an xray image, that's another story, and it could've been that too.
Exactly. Imagery is my field so them just saying “AI X-ray analysis” instead of something more specific or scientific didn’t inspire confidence.
