Overall purpose

To provide advice and guidance to the RCR on AI matters relevant to Clinical Radiology, in support of the RCR's strategic priorities.

Responsibilities

1. The CR AI Advisory Committee (CR AIAC) will advise the RCR on:

• Scope - those areas of work in AI relevant to Clinical Radiology that the RCR should undertake and those it should only advise on
• Implementation - how best to deliver AI work that the RCR undertakes itself
• Funding - how to ensure this area of work can be as self-funding as possible
• Collaboration - identification of those external organisations, people, initiatives, funding, AI technology advances and opportunities relevant to Clinical Radiology with which the RCR should collaborate
• Policy - the areas of AI in Clinical Radiology on which the RCR should develop a policy position
• Influencing - how best to influence the national AI agenda in Clinical Radiology to ensure the views of the RCR are heard
• Any other areas at the request of the CR Faculty Leadership Team

Sub-committees

2. With the agreement of the CR Faculty Leadership Team, the CR AIAC may establish time-limited working groups to carry out short-term projects, subject to available resources.

3. The CR AIAC must ensure that each such working group has clear terms of reference setting out its role, function, time-limit and membership.

4. There will be up to sixteen appointed members with interest, experience, and expertise relevant to the responsibilities set out in paragraph 1.

5. Appointed members will all be members or Fellows in good standing in the Faculty of Clinical Radiology, resident in the UK and in active clinical practice at the time of their appointment.

They may also be drawn from the wider radiology community if their skills, experience and current work is deemed relevant and valuable to the AI-related work of the RCR. Co-opted members will serve a term of up to three years. Their appointment may be extended for one further term of up to three years by agreement with the Co-Chairs.

9. Members of the CR AIAC will be asked to step down if they fail to attend two consecutive meetings without providing an explanation which the Co-Chairs consider satisfactory.

CR AIAC members are required to read the agenda and papers in advance of all meetings to determine if they have a conflict of interest (or there might be a perception of such a conflict of interest) on any of the items. If this is the case, or if there is any doubt, they must advise the co-Chairs as soon as possible.
