Exploring the Integration of Artificial Intelligence in Radiology Education: A Scoping Review

BACKGROUND:The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into radiology education presents a transformative opportunity to enhance learning and practice within the field. This scoping review aims to systematically explore and map the current landscape of AI integration in radiology education. METHODS:The review process involved systematically searching four databases, including MEDLINE (Ovid), Embase (Ovid), PsychINFO (Ovid), and Scopus. Inclusion criteria focused on research that addresses the use of AI technologies in radiology education, including but not limited to, AI-assisted learning platforms, simulation tools, and automated assessment systems. This scoping review was registered on Open Science Framework using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) extension to scoping review. RESULTS:Of the 1081 search results, 9 studies met the inclusion criteria. Key findings indicate a diverse range of AI applications in radiology education, from personalized curriculum generation and diagnostic support tools to automated evaluation systems. The review highlights both the potential benefits, such as enhanced diagnostic accuracy, and the challenges, including technical limitations. CONCLUSION:The integration of AI into radiology education, which has significant potential to enhance outcomes and professional practice, requires overcoming existing challenges and ensuring that AI complements rather than replaces traditional methods, with future research needed on longitudinal studies to evaluate its long-term impact.
