NCIMI is fundamentally about supporting AI development in a radiology context. And what we’re doing is helping our industry partners to develop AI tools that will address unmet areas of clinical need across a range of disease areas.
We were funded by Innovate UK in 2019 through the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund.
Since then we have been:
- Transforming healthcare through artificial intelligence and medical imaging
- Helping to improve diagnosis and treatment for patients
- Collaborating with hospitals, academics, patients, charities, and industry experts
Now, as NCIMI draws to a close, we’ve created an impact report to highlight the incredible transformation, collaboration, and innovation that has happened during the NCIMI programme.
