Coming soon: the Artificial Intelligence Registry

Artificial Intelligence (AI) products are developing rapidly in the field of medical imaging and a wave of deployment is expected in the near future.

Deployment of AI apps 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. Watch this space for updates on how to submit data to the registry and how to use the registry itself, once built.
