The inaugural RCR International AI Convention 2025, held in London, was an attractive gathering of healthcare professionals, innovators and policymakers, all centered on shaping the way forward for AI in healthcare.
With over 1,000 attendees from 54 international locations, 34 expert-led classes and 97 summary posters, the occasion supplied a dynamic surroundings for exploring the transformative potential of AI in radiology and past.
Aligning Business Requirements For an Simpler Path to Adoption
One of many main highlights was the launch of AXREM’s AI manifesto, a vital step in the direction of fostering collaboration between policymakers, NHS management and AI builders. The manifesto underscores the necessity for clear innovation pathways and lowering duplication in compliance efforts, which is important for the efficient scaling of AI in healthcare. With ongoing workforce shortages and rising service calls for, Aidoc absolutely helps this push for significant, scalable AI adoption.
As Aidoc’s Mike Burns, who contributed to the manifesto aptly famous, “I’m proud to see how its imaginative and prescient of accountable AI adoption aligns completely with Aidoc’s platform strategy. The Manifesto’s emphasis on standardisation, scalability and enterprise-wide integration displays precisely what we’ve constructed with our aiOS™ platform – an infrastructure that grows with healthcare suppliers’ wants whereas sustaining the best requirements of safety and scientific governance.”
Burns additionally shared that it was encouraging to see the AI business uniting by way of AXREM to ascertain a trusted, standardised strategy for healthcare suppliers.
“This alignment between AXREM’s imaginative and prescient and Aidoc’s strategy offers me confidence we’re on the appropriate path towards serving to healthcare suppliers realise the complete potential of AI.”
The convention additionally noticed high-profile visits from key policymakers, together with Chi Onwurah MP, Chair of the Science, Innovation and Know-how Choose Committee; Andrew George MP, Member of the Well being and Social Care Choose Committee; Lord Markham, Shadow Minister for Science, Innovation and Know-how within the Lords; and Caroline Nokes MP, Deputy Speaker of the Home of Commons. Their presence highlighted the rising significance of AI in shaping the way forward for healthcare coverage.
Actual-World Impression Offered: Aidoc’s Options for PE
The convention featured highly effective shows demonstrating the real-world affect of Aidoc’s AI options. Professor Jay Suntharalingam from Royal United Hospitals Bathtub highlighted how Aidoc’s AI is reworking pulmonary embolism (PE) administration. By flagging suspected PE circumstances in real-time, he defined how report turnaround occasions will be decreased from two hours to as little as ten minutes, enabling sooner scientific selections.
He additionally defined how the AI assists healthcare suppliers in danger stratification, detecting suspected circumstances of proper coronary heart pressure (an indicator of excessive danger sufferers) to assist determine sufferers who will be safely discharged versus these needing extra instant and pressing care. Early outcomes from their ongoing research have already revealed that Aidoc’s AI flagged suspected constructive circumstances of PE that have been initially missed by the reporting radiologist.1,3
Dr Fergus O’Herlihy from Mater Misericordiae College Hospital in Dublin shared compelling findings from their evaluate of over 11,000 CT research. Following the introduction of Aidoc’s AI, there was an 82% enhance in consciousness of incidental pulmonary emboli (iPE), with segmental emboli detection growing six-fold.2
Notably, 77% of suspected constructive circumstances flagged by the AI led to modifications in scientific administration, resembling initiating anticoagulation remedy. Dr O’Herlihy’s group reported a specificity of over 99%, highlighting how Aidoc’s AI ensures minimal workflow disruption whereas delivering vital scientific worth.2,4
The convention strengthened the very important position AI performs in lowering clinician burden, and enhancing affected person care. We’re excited to proceed collaborating with clinicians, business leaders and policymakers to drive innovation and form the way forward for AI in healthcare.
