Survey shows 64% of radiologists use AI daily, but only a minority feel it significantly enhances skills.
Key Details
- 1Doximity survey (September 2026) included 3,379 U.S. physicians across 20 specialties.
- 264% of radiologists report daily AI use—one of the highest among specialties.
- 3Only 17% of radiologists said AI helps 'a lot' with skill development; 30% say it helps 'somewhat'.
- 445% of radiologists said AI saves them 1–5 hours/week on after-hours admin work; 14% save 6–10 hours.
- 5Three out of four physicians have spotted factual inaccuracy in AI answers in the last year.
- 6Legal/regulatory uncertainty cited as top barrier to wider AI adoption by about one-third of physicians.
Why It Matters
The findings reflect widespread but cautious AI adoption in radiology, highlighting efficiency gains and persistent concerns about accuracy and skill development. Understanding these user perspectives is critical for future clinical implementation and policy development in radiology-AI.
