A new AI model could help radiologists identify brain abnormalities in MRI scans for all conditions including stroke, multiple sclerosis and brain tumors.

The study, led by researchers at King’s College London and published in Radiology AI, shows how AI could address the growing backlogs due to radiologist shortages as well as an increasing demand for MRIs year on year for over a decade.

These backlogs could result in treatment delays and poorer patient outcomes because MRI scans are vital for diagnosing and monitoring a range of brain conditions such as tumors, strokes and aneurysms.

How the AI model was developed

AI could help ease the pressure on radiology departments by triaging scans and increasing reporting speeds.

To do this,...
