AI in Medical Imaging Could Magnify Health Inequities, Study Finds
University of Maryland School of MedicineAnalyzing crowd-sourced sets of data used to create AI algorithms from medical images, University of Maryland School of Medicine researchers found that most did not include patient demographics and none evaluated for inherent biases. That means they have no way of knowing whether these images contain representative samples of the population such as Blacks, Asians, and Indigenous Americans.
