520			_a This qualitative research delves into the experiences of radiologists and Radiologic Technologists in employing Artificial Intelligence (AI) in medical imaging, with emphasis on CT scans in tertiary hospitals in the National Capital Region (NCR) of the Philippines. The integration of AI in Radiology promises to enhance diagnostic accuracy, optimize workflow efficiency and minimize human error. Yet, challenges persist as far as user adaptation, trust, and balance between AI support and human skill are connected. With a phenomenological study design, semi-structured in-depth interviews were carried out among seven purposely selected radiology professionals to gain an understanding of their subjective experiences, perceptions, and challenges with AI deployment. The research sought to determine major themes concerning the influence of A on medical imaging practice. Results indicated that AI greatly enhances productivity and diagnostic assistance through automated image segmentation and processing, supporting radiologists in detecting abnormalities with increased confidence and at faster speeds. Radiologic technologists welcomed the ease of operation and efficiency that AI introduces into workflow management but also noted fear of overdependence and compromise on clinical competence. Participants underscored the critical value of human judgement and pointed to the necessity of constant monitoring to guarantee the accuracy and dependability of AI outputs. Other new themes that emerged were ease of operation, faith in AI technology, the possibility of innovation, and ethical accountability in AI use. In summary, although AI has been perceived to be an excellent tool that augments Radiologic Practice, it needs to be done thoughtfully and in balance with human know-how to ensure quality patient care. This research reiterates the necessity of customized training, user interaction and continued monitoring to ensure adoption of AI in medical imaging. Further research is recommended to expand understanding of AI{92}s roles across diverse clinical settings and to address region-specific challenges in the Philippines.
