An example that features an AI-generated report that identified “scattered pulmonary granulomatous calcifications.” In the first session, three of five readers specifically reported the presence of a nodule. Following the introduction of the AI-generated report, only one reader maintained the specific mention of a nodule, whereas the other four readers adapted their reports to include the AI-suggested terminology of “granulomatous calcifications.” AP = anterior-posterior.
