TITLE=Clinician's guide to trustworthy and responsible artificial intelligence in cardiovascular imaging JOURNAL=Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine VOLUME=9 YEAR=2022 URL=https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/cardiovascular-medicine/articles/10.3389/fcvm.2022.1016032 DOI=10.3389/fcvm.2022.1016032 ISSN=2297-055X ABSTRACT=

A growing number of artificial intelligence (AI)-based systems are being proposed and developed in cardiology, driven by the increasing need to deal with the vast amount of clinical and imaging data with the ultimate aim of advancing patient care, diagnosis and prognostication. However, there is a critical gap between the development and clinical deployment of AI tools. A key consideration for implementing AI tools into real-life clinical practice is their “trustworthiness” by end-users. Namely, we must ensure that AI systems can be trusted and adopted by all parties involved, including clinicians and patients. Here we provide a summary of the concepts involved in developing a “trustworthy AI system.” We describe the main risks of AI applications and potential mitigation techniques for the wider application of these promising techniques in the context of cardiovascular imaging. Finally, we show why trustworthy AI concepts are important governing forces of AI development.
