The rapid digitisation of healthcare data and the sheer volume being generated means that artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming a new reality in the practice of medicine. For this reason, describing the perception of primary care (PC) healthcare professionals on the use of AI as a healthcare tool and its impact in radiology is crucial to ensure its successful implementation. Observational cross-sectional study, using the validated Shinners Artificial Intelligence Perception survey, aimed at all PC medical and nursing professionals in the health region of Central Catalonia. The survey was sent to 1068 health professionals, of whom 301 responded. And 85.7% indicated that they understood the concept of AI but there were discrepancies in the use of this tool; 65.8% indicated that they had not received any AI training and 91.4% that they would like to receive training. The mean score for the professional impact of AI was 3.62 points out of 5 (standard deviation (SD) = 0.72), with a higher score among practitioners who had some prior knowledge of and interest in AI. The mean score for preparedness for AI was 2.76 points out of 5 (SD = 0.70), with higher scores for nursing and those who use or do not know if they use AI. The results of this study show that the majority of professionals understood the concept of AI, perceived its impact positively, and felt prepared for its implementation. In addition, despite being limited to a diagnostic aid, the implementation of AI in radiology was a high priority for these professionals.
