Evaluative study finds that DL assistance improves diagnostic metrics in teleradiology for brain metastasis, suggesting enhanced quality control.

Assess the impact of deep learning on report-level interpretation of brain metastases in a real-world teleradiology setting.
Retrospective analysis of 600 patients who underwent dual-sequence brain MRI.
Comparison of diagnostic metrics before and after DL integration into the workflow.
Interpretation of cases by 10 board-certified teleradiologists with and without DL support.
Exploratory case-level sensitivity analyses based on lesion characteristics and a post-interpretation survey.
Post-DL implementation showed significant increases in sensitivity (90.8% vs. 77.7%), specificity (90.8% vs. 82.3%), and accuracy (90.8% vs. 80.8%).
Lower false-positive rates after DL (5.7% vs. 11.9%) and lower false-negative rates (3.5% vs. 7.3%).
Greatest sensitivity improvements noted for single metastasis and lesions ≤ 5 mm.
Survey results indicated favorable perceptions of DL usability and diagnostic support.
