Real-life benefit of artificial intelligence-based fracture detection in a pediatric emergency department

Question Does an artificial intelligence-based software for fracture detection influence inexperienced physicians in a real-life pediatric trauma population? Findings Addition of a well-performing artificial intelligence-based software led to a limited increase in diagnostic accuracy of inexperienced human readers. Clinical relevance Diagnosing fractures in children is especially challenging for less experienced physicians. High-performing artificial intelligence-based software as a "second set of eyes," enhances diagnostic accuracy in a common pediatric emergency room setting.
