## Resource

In this episode of Healthtech Talks, Lucas and Luna explore how artificial intelligence is being used to triage radiology reports — flagging critical findings like incidental pulmonary nodules before they get buried in a radiologist's queue. They examine a real deployment at a major U.S. hospital system where an AI system reduced time-to-follow-up for suspicious findings from an average of 12 weeks to under 3 days. The conversation covers the underlying natural-language-processing architecture, the challenge of false positives, and why this kind of 'second reader' AI may be more immediately impactful than AI that attempts to replace radiologists outright. #AI #Radiology #HealthcareAI #MedicalImaging #NLP #ClinicalDecisionSupport #DiagnosticDelay #HealthTech #PatientSafety #PulmonaryNodules #IncidentalFindings #RadiologyReports #HospitalIT #DigitalHealth #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
