Teaching artificial intelligence to future radiographers: Curriculum enhancement in a New Zealand radiography course
This Educational Perspective paper highlights an approach that could be considered to integrate AI in undergraduate radiography programmes. This approach demonstrates pedagogical considerations that ensure early exposure to AI and the development of essential practice skills. Early AI education can empower future radiographers to confidently engage with emerging technologies in clinical practice.
