Additionally, they showed some level of misconception about the role AI plays in the job of the radiographer. They also showed a lack of knowledge of some general basic applications of AI in modern imaging equipment. However, they lacked the requisite awareness of AI's emergence in radiography practice in Ghana. Generally, the findings indicate that medical imaging students have fair knowledge about AI and its prospects in medical imaging but lack in-depth knowledge. Less than half (38% and 43%) of the participants acknowledged that current clinical internships helped them appreciate the role of AI in medical imaging or increase their level of knowledge in AI, respectively. And nearly two-thirds (65%) either felt threatened or unsure about their job security due to the incorporation of AI technology in medical imaging equipment. Less than one-third (32%) knew about the general basic application of AI in patient positioning and protocol selection. Furthermore, 160 people (88.4%) expressed an interest in learning more about AI and its applications in medical imaging. However, only 97 (53.6%) were aware of the gradual emergence of AI in the radiography industry in Ghana. Among these, 133 (73.5%) knew that AI had been incorporated into current imaging modalities, and 143 (79.0%) were aware of AI's emergence in medical imaging. The response rate was 80.44% (181/225), out of which 97 (53.6%) were male, 82 (45.3%) were female, and 2 (1.1%) preferred not to disclose their gender.
