Haha "yet". Removing human doctors from the process is sci-fi, and not really 'hard' sci-fi either, as it stands now. Lawyers and CEOs will be far easier to automate.

Rather than dreaming about that, the focus should definitely be on "clinical decision support", i.e. "something useful that will save a radiologist some time and won't just get in the way". Not too many examples of that exist right now. Even speech-to-text is not a solved problem in their domain.
