Machine learning will transform radiology significantly within the next 5 years

With impressive progress in machine learning, there has been increasingly more interest in its relevance to medical physics, which involves both medical imaging and radiation treatment planning.However, because it is still generally unclear how to identify unique niches, utilize big data, and optimize neural networks, machine learning is yet to have a major impact on medical physics practice.Nevertheless, there are optimistic opinions that machine learning will have a major impact on medical physics and radiology within the next 5 years.This is the premise debated in this month's Point/ Counterpoint.Arguing for the Proposition is
