AI in Ultrasound: Gulf Health Care Opportunities and Challenges

AI shows promise for making ultrasound more efficient and consistent in Gulf healthcare systems, but real-world implementation demands region-specific validation across diverse equipment and training.

• AI tools can assist in ultrasound acquisition, quality assessment, measurement, and lesion characterization, potentially improving efficiency and reducing operator dependence.
• Current evidence is limited by retrospective, single-center studies and lack of vendor diversity; Gulf-specific multicenter validation is essential.
• Responsible adoption requires clinician training, transparent model reporting, and privacy-preserving data governance—AI supports, not replaces, ultrasound professionals.
