Social media's role in the perception of radiologists and artificial intelligence.

Social media are impacting all industries and changing the way daily interactions take place. This has been notable in health care as it allows a mechanism to connect patients directly to physicians, advocacy groups, and health care information. ⋯ Often, articles in the lay press have little medical expertise informing opinions about artificial intelligence in radiology. We propose solutions for radiologists to take the lead in the narrative on social media about the role of AI in radiology to better inform and shape public perception about the role of AI in radiology.

AbstractSocial media are impacting all industries and changing the way daily interactions take place. This has been notable in health care as it allows a mechanism to connect patients directly to physicians, advocacy groups, and health care information. Recently, the development of artificial intelligence (AI) applications in radiology has drawn media attention. This has generated a conversation on social media about the expendable role of a radiologist. Often, articles in the lay press have little medical expertise informing opinions about artificial intelligence in radiology. We propose solutions for radiologists to take the lead in the narrative on social media about the role of AI in radiology to better inform and shape public perception about the role of AI in radiology.Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Inc.
