Decision support should reduce search, not replace judgment

The best systems bring relevant context into the moment while keeping responsibility visible.

Agentic foundations and radiology integration point to the same operational goal: reduce the time clinicians spend finding and moving information without hiding the basis of a recommendation.

What practices should take from this

Useful decision support shows its source, fits the clinical moment and makes uncertainty legible. It should not require the clinician to trust an unexplained answer because the system appears confident.

During evaluation, ask users to identify when the tool changed, confirmed or distracted from a decision. Review disagreements rather than counting clicks as adoption.

The objective is better-informed human judgment with less friction. If the tool adds another inbox or black box, the workflow is not finished.
