"The Swedish Society of Radiology is honored to partner with RCR for the Global AI conference in February of 2025. There is no doubt in our minds that AI brings great advances to the field of medical imaging that will help us help more patients. There are, however, no shortage of challenges around finding good use cases, model validation, infrastructure, informatics, work flow orchestration, governance and ROI calculations. Every hospital, region and country has their own opportunities, strengths and weaknesses and we recognize great potential in learning from other countries that are travelling the same bumpy road towards value for our patients".
