“If you work as a radiologist you are like the
cayote that is already over the edge of the cliff,
but hasn’t yet looked down, so hasn’t realised
there is no ground underneath him.
People should stop training radiologists now.
It is just completely obvious that within 5 years
deep learning is going to be better than
radiologists because it is going to have a lot more
experience.
It might be 10 years, but we’ve got plenty of
radiologists already.”
