The Department of Radiology at University Hospitals (UH) in Cleveland, OH, has been recognized by the American College of Radiology (ACR) as a Recognized Center for Healthcare-AI (ARCH-AI).
ARCH-AI is an AI quality assurance program for radiology facilities, which affirms that deployment of AI technologies at UH is built on best practices, outlines expert consensus-based building blocks of infrastructure, and includes processes and governance in AI implementation in real-world practice.
Participation in ARCH-AI can help radiology practices provide safe and effective implementation of AI products and help radiologists provide better patient care. Recognition criteria include establishing an interdisciplinary AI governance group, maintaining an inventory of AI algorithms with detailed documentation, and ensuring adherence to security and compliance measures, among other points.
The Department of Radiology at UH will receive an ACR recognition badge to display in their waiting rooms and lobbies. The department partnered with UH Ventures in 2023 to launch RadiCLE, which collaborates with start-ups worldwide to validate emerging AI radiology technologies.
