The value of artificial intelligence in PSMA PET: a pathway to improved efficiency and results

AI demonstrates significant promise in enhancing PSMA PET scan analysis for metastatic prostate cancer, offering improved efficiency and potentially better diagnostic accuracy. However, the variability in performance and the "black box" nature of some algorithms highlight the need for larger prospective studies, improved model interpretability, and the continued involvement of experienced nuclear medicine physicians in interpreting AI-assisted results. AI should be considered a valuable adjunct, not a replacement, for expert clinical judgment.
