Why we write about this topic:<\/summary>

In our\u00a0weekly\u00a0recap on Sunday, we, as editors, look back at the past seven days. We do this at the suggestion of our cartoonist\u00a0<\/em>Albert Jan Rasker<\/em><\/strong><\/a>. He chooses a subject, makes a drawing, and we take it from there. If you received this mail from someone else, but would also like to receive it every Sunday morning,\u00a0<\/em>just subscribe here<\/em><\/strong><\/a>.<\/em><\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n\n\n

There is a computer system that can tell from MRI scans whether chemotherapy is affecting tumors. This technique is called radiomics. Although the method is proven, it is not yet being used. Doctors are reluctant because they have no idea how and why the system makes confident choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And we see this more often: artificial intelligence can do so much that doctors can hardly keep up with it all – with the result that many potentially valuable therapies remain on the shelf. That\u2019s a pity, of course, but how to do something about it? \u201cHealthcare is the slowest sector to implement innovations,\u201d discovered researcher Merel Huisman. \u201cAn innovation of reasonable size takes an average of 20 years before it is widely used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her study showed that doctors who knew nothing about AI were very optimistic about this technology. However, had they accumulated a little knowledge, they tended to be negative again. “But the more knowledge they gain about AI, the more positive their view of it becomes again. Therefore, the conclusion was that we need to focus on education for doctors so that they are open to AI applications.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Albert Jan Rasker does understand the position of those poor doctors. But colleague Wesley Klop has nevertheless begun the education process desired by Huisman. This is his article:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My personal highlight of the week is Laurens Boven\u2019s interview with Jean-David Malo, who heads the European Innovation Council, which, with a budget of \u20ac10 billion, supports investments to make Europe less dependent on non-EU technology. What a job this man has!<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Oh, and this is fun. The article below was in last week\u2019s newsletter, but something unusual happened. Typically, our top countries in outreach are the USA, Germany, the Netherlands, and Great Britain. Now, look at the top countries attracted by our (very serious) article about a bra made of recycled material that grows with young girls. It was mainly read in Pakistan and Bangladesh, while UAE, Malaysia, and India were also among the top countries. I don\u2019t dare to ask why\u2026<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
