What a demo can't tell you: imaging AI at RSNA 2026

More than 200 companies will be demoing AI tools on the RSNA exhibit floor. That's a lot of choice for a radiology department, and a lot of claims to check. Most buyers have no practical way to test a tool against their own patients before they sign.

The questions a demo can't answer

Accuracy figures on a stand are usually measured on someone else's data. How a tool performs on yours is what decides whether it earns its place. The gaps tend to show up in the same places:

• performance on local scanner models and protocols
• how results shift across age, sex and ethnicity in the local population
• what happens to accuracy six months after go-live
• whether the vendor's validation set looks anything like the department buying it
