SESSION 2: ACR AI-LAB™ Concepts and Demonstration
11:30 AM - 1:00 PM
To accelerate the development and adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in clinical practice, radiologists need to be empowered to create AI tools at their own U.S. institutions, to meet their own patient needs. Find out how new features in the ACR AI-LAB™ offer radiologists tools to participate directly in the creation, validation and use of health care AI.

SESSION 3: How Enterprise Imaging Intersects Enterprise AI Development
2:00 - 3:30 PM
Governing enterprise imaging well can free up the mandatory, optional and conditional metadata that would inform or hamper AI development at your organization. With decades of experience capturing, indexing, and describing imaging findings, radiologists can be at the forefront not only of delivering quality imaging care, but also sharing best practices in making high quality data available for secondary use. This session will outline those best practices.
