1. A system for selectively processing image studies with an artificial intelligence system, the system comprising:
a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a plurality of rules, the plurality of rules related to an applicability of an image study for processing by the artificial intelligence system; and
an electronic processor configured to
access a plurality of image studies awaiting review;
select a first one of the plurality of image studies;
apply at least one of the plurality of rules to the selected first one of the plurality of image studies to determine whether the selected first one of the plurality of image studies is applicable for processing by the artificial intelligence system; and
in response to determining the selected first one of the plurality of image studies is not applicable for processing by the artificial intelligence system, update a workflow status associated with the selected first one of the plurality of image studies to make the selected first one of the plurality of images studies available for claiming by a manual reviewer or another artificial intelligence system.
