Generative AI (GenAI) is rapidly entering radiology, yet many radiologists lack clear, practical guidance for its clinical use. This session is designed to provide a realistic overview of GenAI’s applications and limitations in everyday radiology practice. Through focused lectures and live interaction using Poll Everywhere, participants will learn about the fundamentals of GenAI models, effective prompting strategies for large language models, and practical considerations for deploying diffusion models in clinical settings. By the end of the session, attendees will be better prepared to assess and incorporate GenAI tools into their research and clinical workflows.
This course contains interactive questions throughout the video. These questions are optional and do not require a passing score to earn CME credit. To earn CME credit, participants must watch the full length of the recording and complete the course evaluation.
