Description
Silin Kuang and co-authors interview primary care doctors about an AI tool that triages chest X-rays in a 2026 study. The program was piloted in a public clinic in Singapore, where it sorted scans to speed reporting. Whether doctors trust and keep using such tools depends on more than accuracy, yet real-world views from front-line doctors were scarce.
Twenty doctors took part in interviews and group talks. Use varied and hinged on three themes: whether the tool seemed valid and fit the workflow, whether doctors felt confident, and whether the clinic backed it. Endorsement by the institution, a phased rollout, and the safety net of radiologist reports built trust. Worries about overcalling findings, missing clinical context, and legal duty held some back. The authors urge rollout plans shaped by user experience.
