AI Standard Test Dataset (Pulmonary Imaging Part) Development Meeting Pre-Notice by AI Team, Opto-Mechatronics Laboratory, NIFDC
On January 5, VCBeat learned from the Division of Optical and Mechanical Instruments at the National Institutes for Food and Drug Control (NIFDC) that the division would convene a discussion meeting on the development plan for the standard test dataset (pulmonary imaging section). The full text of the notice is as follows.
To all relevant medical device manufacturers:
The application of artificial intelligence in medicine is developing extremely rapidly, posing challenges to quality assessment and regulation. The AI Group of the Department of Optics, Mechanics, and Electronics at the National Institutes for Food and Drug Control (NIFDC) will convene a discussion meeting in late January 2018 on the development plan for standard test datasets (pulmonary imaging portion). This initiative aims to establish “scientific, independent, impartial, and authoritative” test datasets and objective evaluation methods to advance pre-market quality assessment of products. Representatives from enterprises are hereby invited to attend the meeting.
Call for Submissions: (1)AI software for lung imaging screening and lesion identification has been developed and is expected to/has already undergone registration testing at the National Institutes for Food and Drug Control (NIFDC); (2) Willing to participate in the construction of standard test datasets and provide annotated images as required.。
Qualified enterprises are requested to send the company name, names of attendees, their job titles, mobile phone numbers, and photos of product interfaces to the following email address by January 12, 2018: rowena_cn@163.com. Contact: Senior Engineer Luo Weina; Tel: 010-53852524, 18600198260.
We will notify you of the specific meeting time and venue by phone.
Thank you for your attention.
