The past few years, significant technological advances have been made related to artificial intelligence algorithms that aim at improving quality of care, improving workflow efficiency, or supporting healthcare professionals. Many research institutes, universities and (startup) companies consider the healthcare sector as an attractive market and have invested large amounts into development of state-of-the-art AI algorithms. Despite these large investments, adoption of AI in real clinical practice remains fairly low. Many AI algorithms never leave the research labs or fail to pass regulatory approvals. This webinar will not only cover the potential that AI holds for use in healthcare applications, it will also discuss in detail the learnings and common challenges to bring an AI algorithm from a lab environment to broad clinical deployment.
