Artificial intelligence proves useful in radiology department at AZ Sint-Blasius

The MHRA’s July 2025 “international reliance” pathway lets FDA‑, Health Canada‑ and TGA‑authorised devices, especially AI radiology software, enter Great Britain without repeat assessment, while reserving full UKCA review for first‑in‑class algorithms. This article unpacks each legal change, the expanded AI Airlock sandbox and indefinite CE‑mark recognition, outlining their practical impact on hospitals, developers and policymakers across diagnostic imaging.

Evidence already suggests that AI can significantly improve diagnostic performance while reducing workload. As algorithms learn from more diverse patient data, expect accuracy to plateau near perfect negative predictive value, freeing clinicians to focus on complex judgement that machines cannot replicate.

A inteligência artificial (IA) está se tornando rapidamente indispensável na radiologia. Em nenhum outro lugar isso fica mais claro do que na detecção de fraturas, onde diagnósticos perdidos ou atrasados ainda representam entre 3% e 10% dos erros em radiografias de trauma em departamentos de emergência movimentados.
