London Medical Imaging & Artificial Intelligence Centre for Value-Based Healthcare

伦敦基于价值的医疗保健的医学成像和人工智能中心将改善NHS的患者护理和健康结果，降低医疗成本，支持公司的增长，支持经济。它将通过将人工智能技术应用于医学成像(例如MRI扫描、CT扫描、PET扫描和超声波)来实现这一点。人工智能将实现更快、更早的诊断、报告的自动化、改进的患者疾病筛查，以及为每个人确定最佳治疗。我们将创建一个强大、充满活力的中心，将工业界、中小企业(SME)、世界领先的研究人员、涵盖多个实践领域的医疗保健专业人员以及数据科学/治理方面的专家聚集在一起。该中心是由三所优秀的大学(国王大学、帝国大学和昆士兰大学)、四家领先的NHS信托基金(盖斯和圣托马斯、伦敦南部国王学院医院和莫德斯利和巴茨健康)、跨国产业(西门子、NVIDIA、IBM、葛兰素史克)、10家英国中小企业和医疗创新网络合作建立的。该中心将有一个实体枢纽嵌入圣托马斯医院，位于英国表现最好的NHS信托基金之一的心脏地带，提供专业服务和英国最大的重症监护病房之一。它将以现有的惠康/EPSRC医学工程中心为基础，该中心是医学成像领域的旗舰投资。该中心将为学术研究人员、中小企业和业界合作伙伴提供管理良好、受控的高质量NHS成像和患者数据。这样做的同时，将保护患者隐私作为第一要求。我们将增加卫生经济学和统计学、护理路径设计和临床实施方面的专业知识，以创造一个可以创造和测试产品的环境。认识到这是医疗保健领域的一个新发展，患者、广大公众和政策制定者都将有机会为该中心提供意见和制定优先事项。该中心将通过挑选12个示范项目来推动进展，这些项目经过特别挑选，并有公众意见，以说明机会的广度--涵盖早期生命(胎儿诊断)到老年(痴呆症)，包括心脏、大脑和肺部在内的各种器官系统，以及心力衰竭、头痛、先天性疾病和癌症等疾病。除了中心的直接好处外，这项活动还将成为灯塔，吸引来自世界各地的跨国公司、风险资本投资和人工智能人才，创造就业机会。更广泛的经济利益，并为英国的繁荣做出贡献。

"The London Medical Imaging & Artificial Intelligence Centre for Value-Based Healthcare will improve NHS patient care and health outcomes, reduce healthcare costs and support the growth of companies, supporting the economy. It will do this by applying artificial intelligence technologies to medical imaging (for example MRI scans, CT scans PET scans and ultrasound). Artificial intelligence will enable faster and earlier diagnosis, automation of reporting, improved patient screening for disease, and identification of the best treatment for each person.We will create a powerful, dynamic Centre bringing together industry, small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), world-leading researchers, healthcare professionals covering many areas of practice, and experts in data science/governance. The Centre is a collaboration between three excellent universities (King's, Imperial and QMUL), four leading NHS Trusts (Guy's & St Thomas', King's College Hospital, South London & the Maudsley and Barts Health), multinational industry (Siemens, NVIDIA, IBM, GSK), 10 UK-based SMEs and the Health Innovation Network. The Centre will have a physical hub embedded in St Thomas' Hospital, in the heart of one of the UK's top-performing NHS Trusts with specialist services and one of the UK's largest critical care units. It will be underpinned by the existing Wellcome/EPSRC Centre for Medical Engineering, a flagship investment in medical imaging.The Centre will deliver well-governed, controlled access to high-quality NHS imaging and patient data for academic researchers, SMEs and industry partners. This will be done while preserving patient privacy as the first requirement. We will add dedicated expertise in health economics & statistics, care pathway design and clinical implementation to create an environment where products can be created and tested. Recognising this is a new development in healthcare, patients, the wider public and policy makers will all have opportunities to input and shape priorities for the Centre.The Centre will drive progress through a selection of 12 exemplar projects, specifically chosen, with public input, to illustrate the breadth of opportunity-- covering early life (fetal diagnosis) to old age (dementia), various organ systems including heart, brain and lungs, and diseases such as heart failure, headache, congenital conditions and cancer.In addition to the direct benefits of the Centre, this activity will act as a beacon to attract multinational companies, venture capital investment and AI talent from across the world, creating jobs, broader economic benefit and contributing to the UK's prosperity."
