Nat Med. 2022 Feb;28(2):229-232. doi: 10.1038/s41591-021-01624-y.

Abstract

Built-in decision thresholds for AI diagnostics are ethically problematic, as patients may differ in their attitudes about the risk of false-positive and false-negative results, which will require that clinicians assess patient values.
