> but in exams like X-ray, ultrasound etc you cannot make it work( at least now)

Why not? An image is an image.

Believe me it's not the same, especially at ultrasound where everything it's not clear due external factors an body types. I do this for a living (radiologist)plus I love programming and would like to see those two come together but the reality is different. Ai could assist doctors and suggest possible findings.
Ultrasound is a bit different because it's "active looking" - if after a cursory scan the technician isn't actively directing the device at (and around!) the suspicious spot, you won't get the images required to be sure about what's there.
