This session aims to present the current status of evidence and knowledge concerning the carbon-intensive activities that are frequently undertaken in radiology, related to AI and to data storage. With the ongoing deployment of AI into the radiology workflow, the impact on energy use will be considered. Can the use of AI actually help to green our radiology practice? How will generative AI impact? Can radiologists help to bear down on carbon footprint by careful attention to data storage, and if so, what impact could this have? Expert speakers will join for a panel discussion.
