Automatic comprehensive radiological reports for clinical acute stroke MRIs.

Artificial intelligence (AI) uses computer software to solve problems that normally require human input. It is likely that AI will take over, or help with, certain tasks in medical imaging, particularly where these tasks are time-consuming and laborious for clinicians. Here, we demonstrate the possibility of using AI to generate radiological reports for brain scans from patients who have had a stroke. These reports provide a summary of what is shown in the scans, and are normally written by clinicians. Our system performs similarly to human experts, is fast, publicly available, and runs on normal computers with minimal computational requirements, meaning that it might be a useful tool for researchers and clinicians to use when assessing and treating patients with stroke.
