The AI algorithm showed excellent diagnostic accuracy detecting PE on CTPA. Accuracy of the AI was significantly higher compared to the attending radiologist. Highest diagnostic accuracy can likely be achieved by radiologists supported by AI. Our results indicate that implementation of AI-assisted reporting could reduce the number of missed positive findings.
