Ethical Principles for AI in Medicine

The Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists (RANZCR) has developed a draft Ethical Principles for artificial intelligence (AI) aimed at guiding the ethical development of AI technology in medicine, particularly for clinical radiology and radiation oncology (Draft Principles).

The Draft Principles outline the most appropriate use of AI and machine learning, including how both can successfully help drive even better patient care.

The Draft Principles discuss eight ethical principles for guiding the development of standards of practice for AI research and the deployment of AI tools in medicine.

The full Draft Principles are for public consultation on the RANZCR's website here. Comments from the public will be accepted by the close of business on 26 April 2019.
