00:00What is the role of Artificial Intelligence?
00:04Artificial Intelligence is now included in all phases of the medical-radiological act,
00:10so certainly the area that is most emphasized is that of diagnosis,
00:17of early diagnosis, of the fallibility of the most complex diagnoses,
00:22or of the speed of the simplest diagnoses.
00:25In fact, Artificial Intelligence is also fundamental in the decision of which exam to do,
00:31if to do the exam, and above all in the optimization of the execution of the exam.
00:36Let's think of all the exams that use ionizing radiations.
00:40Well, today several software, several systems of Artificial Intelligence
00:44allow to optimize the dose based on the characteristics of the patient,
00:48the age of the patient, the sex of the patient, the clinical question,
00:51and therefore reduce the dose that we actually give to the patient,
00:56therefore improving not only the diagnosis, but also the health of the patient himself.
01:01Augmented reality helps the patient, for example, in the acceptance of the exam.
01:07Today, several systems have been studied and also introduced in the clinic
01:12to immerse the patient in a virtual reality,
01:16before or during the execution of a radiological exam,
01:19thus reducing the anxiety of the exam.
01:22Let's think of magnetic resonance exams, which today can last more than 20 minutes,
01:26and which are practically impossible to perform in claustrophobic patients or pediatric patients.
01:32Here, the possibility of immersing oneself in a virtual reality can help the patient.
01:36On the other hand, the possibility of using augmented reality, virtual reality,
01:41is also helpful to new doctors in training,
01:44therefore to those who are facing this discipline,
01:47because it allows to simulate medical realities, radiological realities,
01:53of interventional radiology realities,
01:55and therefore to perform exams, to perform procedures of interventional radiology,
02:00without using directly the patients as cables,
02:04but exercising themselves first on a virtual reality, without hurting anyone,
02:10but thus improving their training and their performance.
