Image: Examples of correctly and incorrectly prioritized radiographs. (a) Radiograph was reported as showing large right pleural effusion (arrow). This was correctly prioritized as urgent. (b) Radiograph reported as showing “lucency at the left apex suspicious for pneumothorax.” This was prioritized as normal. On review by three independent radiologists, the radiograph was unanimously considered to be normal. (c) Radiograph reported as showing consolidation projected behind heart (arrow). The finding was missed by the artificial intelligence system, and the study was incorrectly prioritized as normal (Photo courtesy of RSNA).
