Imaging AI in Practice demonstration

The Imaging AI in Practice (IAIP) demonstration is presented at the RSNA annual meeting to showcase new technologies and communication standards needed to integrate AI into the diagnostic radiology workflow. It uses real-world clinical scenarios and interoperability standards to demonstrate new tools and practice enhancements enabled by AI. 

Scenario

The demonstration follows a fictional patient through a real-world clinical scenario involving both emergent and long-term care. It includes many steps in the radiology workflow where AI can assist the radiologist and improve the efficiency and quality of care.

The diagrams linked here give a visual overview of the flow of information among systems in a radiology practice with AI tools integrated: 

• Imaging AI Workflow
• Post-Imaging AI Workflow 

Standards foundation

The RSNA IAIP demonstration shows how radiology systems can be integrated to efficiently include AI-based applications at key points in the workflow. This seamless integration relies on a set of interoperability standards, including: 

• IHE AI Results specifies how results are stored, retrieved, and displayed.
• IHE AI Workflow for Imaging specifies methods to request, manage, perform, and monitor imaging AI algorithms.
• IHE Standardized Operational Log of Events specifies ways to capture workflow event information for use by business intelligence tools.
• HL7 FHIRcast synchronizes clinical applications (EHR, PACS, reporting systems, AI tools) to a given study or patient.
