A Practical Guide to Evaluating Artificial Intelligence Imaging Models in Scientific Literature
Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) are revolutionizing ophthalmology by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, treatment planning, and patient management. However, a significant gap remains in practical guidance for ophthalmologists who lack AI expertise to effectively analyze these technologies and assess their readiness for integration into clinical practice. This paper aims to bridge this gap by demystifying AI model design and providing practical recommendations for evaluating AI imaging models in research publications.
