OpenNational Institutes of HealthUnited States

A programme is being set up to build AI tools that combine clinical imaging with other health data and support decisions at the point of care. Before those tools get built, somebody has to write down how to build them properly. That is this notice.

The output is called a playbook, and the notice defines it: a collection of actionable guidelines, standardised protocols and standard operating proce

Design, development and preliminary validation of frameworks — actionable guidelines, standardised protocols and standard operating procedures — for reliable development and deployment of multimodal AI clinical decision support tools integrating clinical imaging with other health data, extensible and interoperable across biomedical AI applications beyond the programme itself. Clinical trials are not allowed.
