American College of Radiology (ACR)

The American College of Radiology represents diagnostic radiologists, radiation oncologists, interventional radiologists, nuclear medicine physicians and medical physicists. The society represents more than 41,000 diagnostic and interventional radiologists, radiation oncologists, nuclear medicine physicians and medical physicists. ACR helps members, through advocacy, quality and safety, and innovation, and serves as the voice of radiology, demonstrating value and setting standards to advance the field and practice.

VIDEO: AI for stroke detection on CT imaging

Bibb Allen, MD, FACR, chief medical officer of the American College of Radiology (ACR) Data Science Institute, explains the trend of using AI for the automated detection of stroke on computed tomography (CT) imaging and the need to include radiologists on the stroke care team.

Bibb Allen, MD, FACR, chief medical officer of the American College of Radiology (ACR) Data Science Institute, and former ACR president, explains how hospitals or radiology departments can conduct quality assurance (QA) assessments on artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms they adopt to ensure they are accurate. The ACR established the Assess-AI Registry and AI-Lab to help with validating and tracking AI QA for FDA-cleared algorithms.
