Abstract
This study has two aims. The first aim is to investigate the perception of Jordanian radiologists on artificial intelligence (AI) in medical imaging. The second aim is to compare Jordan to similar studies conducted in the USA, EU, and 54 other countries worldwide through a cross-sectional analysis. Drawn from a sample of six public and private institutions in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, information was gathered from 16 radiologists and 14 radiology residents using a 21-question questionnaire delivered via the association's WhatsApp platform and an informal chat. The questionnaire comprised five themes: knowledge of AI, attitude toward AI in radiology, willingness to engage actively, AI integration in radiology training, and Challenges to AI implementation. The findings proved that Jordanian radiologists with over five years of experience and residents with less than five years of experience both apprehend the role of AI, with no statistically significant difference (p-value >0.05). However, compared to radiologists, residents are noticeably more enthusiastic about AI (p-value <0.01). Additionally, radiologists were far more concerned about obstacles and were less inclined to believe that AI would enhance radiology department workflow (p-value <0.01). The cross-sectional comparison with 54 countries revealed that Jordanian professionals are like their peers in their understanding of the advantages of the futuristic deployment of AI (p-value >0.05). However, they show greater concern about clinical, technical, and regulatory difficulties (p-value <0.01). These findings demonstrate the impression of adopting AI in radiology in Jordan.
