Summary
The goal of this observational study is to learn if an AI assistant tool can help doctors who read chest CT scans (called radiologists) write their reports faster and just as well or better. Chest CT scans are common pictures taken of the inside of the chest to help with diagnosis. The main questions the study aims to answer are: (1) Does using the AI tool save radiologists time when writing their reports? (2) Are the final reports written with the AI tool's help as good as or better than reports written without it? To answer these questions, researchers will compare two time periods at several hospitals. They will look at how long it took to write reports and how good the reports were, both from a time before the AI tool was available and from a time after it was in regular use. In this study, radiologists will use the AI tool as part of their normal daily work. The tool is built into the computer system they already use to look at scans. Researchers will then measure the time and quality of the reports produced during their regular shifts.
