Personally knowing the hit rate of these ML models & their non-explanatory nature, weighed against their low cost.. I'd argue they should be used as a default automated second opinion to radiologist opinion.
Recently went through a pet cancer death so though medical imaging, diagnostic testing, specialist escalation and second opinion workflows are pretty fresh in my mind. There is a shortage of specialists, backlog for appointments and many astonishingly bad practitioners out there.
In my experience, multiple knee MRTs, the liver, the intestine, the ankle..., radiologists by default are the second opinion to the specialist, e.g. an oncologist, that sent you to get the scan in the first place. I never ever had a radiologist come up with a diagnosis by himself.
