Objective  To determine the anticipated contribution of recently published medical imaging literature, including artificial intelligence (AI), on the workload of diagnostic radiologists.    Methods  This study included a random sample of 440 medical imaging studies published in 2019. The direct contribution of each study to patient care and its effect on the workload of diagnostic radiologists (i.e., number of examinations performed per time unit) was assessed. Separate analyses were done for an academic tertiary care center and a non-academic general teaching hospital.    Results  In the academic tertiary care center setting, 65.0% (286/440) of studies could directly contribute to patient care, of which 48.3% (138/286) would increase workload, 46.2% (132/286) would not change workload, 4.5% (13/286) would decrease workload, and 1.0% (3/286) had an unclear effect on workload. In the non-academic general teaching hospital setting, 63.0% (277/240) of studies could directly contribute to patient care, of which 48.7% (135/277) would increase workload, 46.2% (128/277) would not change workload, 4.3% (12/277) would decrease workload, and 0.7% (2/277) had an unclear effect on workload. Studies with AI as primary research area were significantly associated with an increased workload ( p  < 0.001), with an odds ratio (OR) of 10.64 (95% confidence interval (CI) 3.25–34.80) in the academic tertiary care center setting and an OR of 10.45 (95% CI 3.19–34.21) in the non-academic general teaching hospital setting.    Conclusions  Recently published medical imaging studies often add value to radiological patient care. However, they likely increase the overall workload of diagnostic radiologists, and this particularly applies to AI studies.
