Description
Abhilash Koratala, Filipa Ferreira, and Hugo Diniz published a letter to the editor in two thousand twenty-six about artificial intelligence and bedside ultrasound in kidney medicine. They respond to a recent study on ultrasound in kidney disease care. AI tools are changing how clinicians learn, perform, and read scans.
The letter lists the upsides: guided image capture, automatic measurements, and wider access to training. It warns that automated reading can mislead when findings need physiological context. Overreliance risks thinning real understanding of the patient. The authors look ahead to tools assessing blood flow patterns, not just pictures. Their bottom line: AI should sharpen clinicians, never substitute for them.
