UCLA CVIB Workshop 2023

AI and Imaging Biomarkers: Progress and challenges in implementing into patient care

Despite the many papers published, very little AI and quantitative imaging biomarkers are implemented into routine patient care. Technology does not benefit patients unless it is translated and validated in clinical practice, and we believe that the success of AI should be measured in improvements in patient outcomes. Machine learning algorithms must be hardened to handle the variability of real-world imaging and integrated carefully into physician workflows at the point of care. The aim of this workshop is for researchers to exchange experiences, challenges, and progress in translating AI and Imaging Biomarkers into patient care. We look forward to sharing practical CVIB experiences in tackling and overcoming barriers to technology adoption.
