Study finds deep learning MRI reconstruction models lack safety evaluation

A recent study published on arXiv evaluated the safety of deep learning models used for brain MRI reconstruction. The research found that current evaluation methods, which often rely on metrics like PSNR and SSIM, are insufficient for detecting critical failures such as lesion erasure or the synthesis of false tissue. The paper highlights that generative models, which are prone to hallucination, are particularly under-evaluated, and that the prevalence of reader assessments has declined over time. The authors conclude that existing practices cannot guarantee diagnostic safety and propose five requirements for future safety-oriented evaluations. AI

IMPACT Current evaluation practices for deep learning-based medical imaging models are insufficient, potentially compromising patient safety and requiring new standards for diagnostic reliability.
