How AI is Reshaping Medical Imagery with MIT CSAIL Professor Polina Golland

04 Aug 2025

Description

AI is transforming radiology, but not at the expense of skilled technicians. In the same way that personal computers and spreadsheets didn’t eliminate accountants, AI is not going to replace radiologists but will instead transform the way they work. MIT CSAIL Professor Polina Golland’s research sits at the intersection of machine learning and healthcare, specifically medical imaging. In this episode, she discusses her team’s groundbreaking work on algorithms that analyze subtle patterns in x-rays, helping detect diseases earlier and understand them more deeply. This conversation covers: 2:00 - How do doctors diagnose heart failure? 5:27 - Converting medical imagery to numbers 8:20 - Code generation for radiologists 9:25 - Weaknesses in the medical system that computing can strengthen 16:48 - The choreography of treating a patient 20:31 - Turning an algorithm into a product 24:26 - Will radiologists be replaced by AI? 30:21 - How will AI change medical imagery?
