Artificial Intelligence Assistance Does Not Provide Immediate Benefit for Right Upper Quadrant Window Acquisition

Apr 01,26 | 01:43 EST

This repeated-measures study investigated the immediate combined effect of AI auto-labeling and auto-grading on acquisition time and image quality of the right upper quadrant (RUQ) Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma (FAST) exam window. The study involved 14 novice and 10 experienced emergency medicine (EM) physician trainees. Participants recorded RUQ windows with and without AI assistance on three standardized patients. Results showed that AI assistance significantly increased acquisition time for both novice (85 vs 53 seconds; p < 0.01) and experienced trainees (44 vs 28 seconds; p < 0.01). While experienced trainees achieved significantly better image quality than novices, AI assistance did not lead to an immediate improvement in image quality within either group. These findings suggest that such AI features do not immediately aid physician trainees in acquiring RUQ FAST exam windows during isolated attempts.

Forum on harnessing Artificial Intelligence for health equity

Mar 19,26 | 01:36 EST

Over the past decade, artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly evolved in complexity, performance, and utility. Its integration across a wide range of industrial sectors has accelerated, with healthcare emerging as one of the most transformative sectors. In this sector, AI has enabled high-impact applications – from enhancing the speed and accuracy of disease diagnosis and supporting clinical decision-making, to strengthening public health initiatives such as disease surveillance and workforce optimization. Moreover, AI holds immense potential to empower individuals, enabling them to take greater control of their personal health and well-being. Yet the central question remains: Who benefits, who is at risk, and do these innovations close or widen health inequities? While the potential of AI-enabled applications is substantial, many countries have approached their adoption with caution. This hesitancy stems from concerns about risks and benefits, including model bias, data breaches, privacy violations, and the erosion of professional skills due to over-reliance on AI. Additional barriers include inadequate data infrastructure and a lack of robust evidence on the most effective forms and interfaces of AI to enhance service delivery and system performance. Moreover, the rapid rise of Generative AI has introduced a heightened urgency for the development of comprehensive governance and ethical frameworks. The Asian Development Bank (ADB) Health Practice Team and Digital Sector, in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) Regional Office for the Western Pacific, are convening the Forum on Harnessing AI for Health Equity on 25–26 March at ADB Headquarters. Senior health officials from 16 developing member countries (DMCs), alongside leading researchers, innovators, and policymakers from across Asia and the Pacific, will engage in discussions on how AI can be governed, financed, and scaled to deliver healthier lives for all. The forum is funded through the High-Level Technology Fund with support from the Government of Japan.
