Episode 3: Radiology, with Dr. Ryan Appleby Veterinary AI Brief Podcast 4 subscribers Analytics Edit video 0 Share Promote Download In this episode of AI for Vets, hosts Robert and Dr. Adam Little are joined by Dr. Ryan Appleby, a board-certified veterinary radiologist, to explore the evolving role of AI in veterinary medicine. The conversation dives into how AI is being adopted in veterinary radiology, highlighting the differences in regulation and innovation compared to human medicine. Dr. Appleby explain that while AI tools can streamline administrative tasks and improve workflow, large language models like GPT-5 are not reliable for direct image interpretation and can sometimes provide convincing but incorrect answers. The episode discusses the financial incentives behind marketing AI tools to general veterinarians, the lack of transparency and oversight in current veterinary AI products, and the risks of misdiagnosis and increased costs when AI is used without radiologist input. Real-world examples illustrate both the promise and pitfalls of AI in image analysis, emphasizing the need for human oversight and critical thinking. The hosts and guest stress the importance of transparency, informed consent, and collaboration between AI developers, radiologists, and practitioners.
