Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms have shown great promise in oncological imaging, outperforming or matching radiologists in retrospective studies, signifying their potential for advanced screening capabilities. These AI tools offer valuable support to radiologists, assisting them in critical tasks such as prioritizing reporting, early cancer detection, and precise measurements, thereby bolstering clinical decision-making. With the healthcare landscape witnessing a surge in imaging requests and a decline in available radiologists, the integration of AI has become increasingly appealing. By streamlining workflow efficiency and enhancing patient care, AI presents a transformative solution to the challenges faced by oncological imaging practices. Nevertheless, successful AI integration necessitates navigating various ethical, regulatory, and medical-legal challenges. This review endeavors to provide a comprehensive overview of these obstacles, aiming to foster a responsible and effective implementation of AI in oncological imaging.
