I spoke to radiologist in a customer interview yesterday. They mentioned that they would really like a tool that could zoom on a specific part of an image and explain what is happening. For extra points they would like it to be able to reference literature where similar images were shown.

Connecting your comment to another about commercial model, seems the potential win here is selling useful tools to radiologists that may leverage AI rather than to end customers with the idea to replace some radiology consultations.

This seems generally aligned with AI realities today: it won't necessarily replace whole job functions but it can increase productivity when applied thoughtfully.

Aren't radiologists that "tool" from the perspective of primary doctors?
Sort of like primary doctors are just a "tool" to get referrals for treatment
