There is a quotation from the pilot announcement reading “This tool supports our radiologists by highlighting the scans most likely to show prostate cancer, helping us identify and rule out the disease more quickly. By prioritising the most suspicious cases first, we can diagnose men sooner and ensure those who need treatment most urgently are seen without delay. We hope this pilot will show how AI, used in the right way, can deliver real improvements in patient care and experience.”
