Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine has shown significant promise, particularly in neuroimaging. AI increases efficiency and reduces errors, making it a valuable resource for physicians. With the increasing amount of data processing and image interpretation required, the ability to use AI to augment and aid the radiologist could improve the quality of patient care. Observations: AI can predict patient wait times, which may allow more efficient patient scheduling. Additionally, AI can save time for repeat magnetic resonance neuroimaging and reduce the time spent during imaging. AI has the ability to read computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and positron emission tomography with reduced or without contrast without significant loss in sensitivity for detecting lesions. Neuroimaging does raise important ethical considerations and is subject to bias. It is vital that users understand the practical and ethical considerations of the technology. Conclusions: The demonstrated applications of AI in neuroimaging are numerous and varied, and it is reasonable to assume that its implementation will increase as the technology matures. AI's use for detecting neurologic conditions holds promise in combatting ever increasing imaging volumes and providing timely diagnoses.
