1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundArtificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being explored in radiology, including its potential role in emergency imaging settings. However, global perspectives on AI adoption, usefulness, and limitations among emergency radiologists remain underexplored.

aimTo assess awareness, usage, perceived benefits, and limitations of AI tools among radiologists practicing emergency radiology worldwide.

methodsA 16-question survey was distributed globally between October 24, 2024, and August 4, 2025, targeting radiologists working in academic, community, and private settings who practice emergency radiology as a primary or secondary subspecialty. The survey was disseminated

resultsAI awareness was high (93%), but frequent clinical use was reported by only 28%. Daily use of AI in emergent imaging was limited to 23% of respondents. The majority anticipated AI becoming essential within five years (68%), and 51% believed AI would replace certain radiological tasks. Image interpretation and acquisition were the most common AI applications. Key perceived benefits included improved diagnostic accuracy and increased efficiency, while concerns included limited accuracy, integration difficulties, and cost. Trust in AI varied by experience, with less experienced radiologists viewed as more trusting.

conclusionWhile emergency radiologists globally recognize AI's potential, significant barriers to its routine adoption remain. Addressing issues of trust, cost, accuracy, and workflow integration is essential to unlock AI's full utility in emergency radiology.
