Artificial Intelligence (AI) products are developing rapidly in the field of medical imaging and a wave of deployment is expected in the near future. This may take place in a clinical setting either whilst an algorithm is under evaluation or once approved.
We are collating a first-of-its-kind registry of all AI deployed in imaging
across the UK, and working on how to practically quality assure algorithms once deployed.
