The Royal College of Radiologists (RCR) is committed to harnessing AI’s potential while safeguarding patient care and public funds.
We remain dedicated to shaping a future where AI enhances, rather than replaces, the expertise of radiologists and oncologists.
Our focus is on ensuring AI’s safe and effective use, always prioritising the needs of patients and the professionals who care for them.

Conversations are happening globally about how AI can transform healthcare. We are ensuring that the voice of radiology and oncology is at the forefront of these discussions. As AI continues to develop rapidly in medical imaging, RCR is actively collaborating with the NHS and international partners to ensure responsible deployment.
AI is transforming radiology, but it also raises important sustainability considerations. With healthcare contributing 4-10% of global greenhouse gas emissions, it is crucial to examine AI’s environmental impact and explore ways to make it more sustainable.
The Royal College of Radiologists, in partnership with The Royal College of Pathologists, has taken a leading role in shaping AI’s future in the NHS. Following a joint meeting at 10 Downing Street, we published a report outlining key priorities for AI deployment in healthcare.
AI tools have long been seen as transformative for diagnostic imaging, but their implementation comes with challenges. At our AI stakeholder day, we explored the barriers to adoption and strategies to overcome them, ensuring AI is integrated in a way that benefits both patients and clinicians.
In December 2023, we hosted an AI-focused workshop run jointly with the National Institute for Health and Care Research.
