Emergency neuroradiology provides rapid diagnostic decision-making and guidance for management for a wide range of acute conditions involving the brain, head and neck, and spine. This narrative review aims at providing an up-to-date discussion about the state of the art of applications of artificial intelligence in emergency neuroradiology, which have substantially expanded in depth and scope in the past few years. A detailed analysis of machine learning and deep learning algorithms in several tasks related to acute ischemic stroke involving various imaging modalities, including a description of existing commercial products, is provided. The applications of artificial intelligence in acute intracranial hemorrhage and other vascular pathologies such as intracranial aneurysm and arteriovenous malformation are discussed. Other areas of emergency neuroradiology including infection, fracture, cord compression, and pediatric imaging are further discussed in turn. Based on these discussions, this article offers insight into practical considerations regarding the applications of artificial intelligence in emergency neuroradiology, calling for more development driven by clinical needs, attention to pediatric neuroimaging, and analysis of real-world performance.
