MedAIcine: A Pilot Project on the Social and Ethical Aspects of AI in Medical Imaging

Abstract

"As artificial intelligence continues to advance and permeate various aspects of our lives, it is crucial that we consider the ethical and social implications of these developments. With its pilot project ‘MedAIcine’ the newly founded Center for Responsible AI Technologies (‘CReAITe’) strives for critically reflecting vital concepts and conflicts regarding the responsible design and use of AI in medical imaging, using an interdisciplinary approach called ‘embedded ethics and social science’. Drawing on perspectives of developers, physicians, and patients across three different use cases (radiology, endoscopy, and dermatology), we identify key social, political, and ethical challenges associated with medical AI, such as issues of trust, privacy, explainability, bias, equity, and responsibility in relation to AI technologies."
