[Artificial intelligence in paediatric pneumology - opportunities and unanswered questions].

Artificial intelligence (AI) is already being used in most medical disciplines, including paediatric pneumology. This review describes current developments in AI-supported technologies and discusses their potential for the diagnosis and treatment of lung diseases in children and adolescents. The spectrum ranges from models for analysing respiratory sounds and the automated evaluation of medical imaging to systems for supporting clinical decisions. In particular, challenges in the adaptation of AI for paediatric populations are also described. Finally, open questions, such as the implementation of AI-based software in everyday clinical practice, will be discussed.
