- AAPM Webinar on TG 273 Best Practices for CAD-AI in Medical Imaging
This webinar will discuss the recommendations on best practices and standards developed by Task Group 273 of the AAPM’s Computer-Aided Image Analysis Subcommittee for the development and performance assessment of computer-aided decision support systems. This topic is especially timely as machine learning techniques continue to evolve and CAD applications expand to new stages of the patient-care process. The webinar will emphasize the proper training and validation methods for machine learning algorithms that may improve their generalizability and reliability and accelerate the adoption of CAD-AI systems for clinical decision support.
Speakers: Nicholas Petrick, Kenny Cha, Lisa Morra, Heang-Ping Chan
