With uses for AI tools being explored across the NHS, analysts are working hard to build the evidence base to inform decision‑making.

Read this week’s Q&A with #RSET researchers to learn about their evaluation of the use of AI tools in chest diagnostics.

Delighted to share our findings from this important rapid evaluation as part of the @NIHRresearch Rapid Service Evaluation Team programme - providing lessons on implementation and impact of AI tools to support chest diagnostics in NHS hospital services.

[Nuffield Trust @NuffieldTrust]

NEW Q&A: What do we know about how AI is being used to support clinical decision-making in the NHS?

We sat down with @angusramsay, Chris Sherlaw-Johnson and Kevin Herbert to learn about a new evaluation of how AI is being applied to chest diagnostics.

Ah, Streatham is looking lovely, tonight!

[Angus Ramsay @angusramsay]

Great to see Jessica Weng sharing our poster presenting quantitative findings from PHOTONIC at #UKSF25!

[Angus Ramsay @angusramsay]

The venue, looking rather gorgeous!

[Angus Ramsay @angusramsay]

Sunrise in Aberdeen: following (another) hearty breakfast, I am looking forward to discussing the findings from PHOTONIC with #UKSF delegates, this afternoon!

[Angus Ramsay @angusramsay]

Enjoying the #UKSF opening plenary, led by @Deborah71247971 and David Werring (@UCLStrokeRes). Insights on current innovation, and a little - a little - doric thrown in! 😄

[Angus Ramsay @angusramsay]

Great to be at #UKSF 2025, in Aberdeen! Lovely to meet colleagues in person, and to be hearing about cutting edge #stroke research. Currently enjoying talks on the latest news on mechanical thrombectomy, led off by Prof Steve Powis

[Angus Ramsay @angusramsay]

We based these questions on learning from our rapid evaluation of implementing #AI tools for chest diagnostics, as part of the work of the @NIHRresearch Rapid Service Evaluation Team - more details and links in the tweet below.

I'm delighted to have led this paper, published today, with other members of the @NIHRresearch Rapid Service Evaluation Team (https://t.co/GyK4CqpmB1). We provide important lessons on procurement and deployment of #AI tools in healthcare, including key obstacles and enablers.

[Angus Ramsay @angusramsay]

Really pleased to share the article we published yesterday in @SectorFocus - in it, we set out key questions that public sector leaders may want to consider when thinking about implementing #AI tools in their services.

🆕 #RSET paper finds #AI diagnostic tools might not be a silver bullet for health care service pressures.

AI tools offer valuable support, but can be hard to implement. The paper identifies important lessons.

Delighted the Thrombolysis in Acute Stroke Collaboration (TASC) tool kit is now available ☝️

18 hospitals with low IV lysis rates @NHSEngland demonstrated phenomenal agency, learning & improvement, averaging:

New paper: @NIHRresearch scoping review on centralisation of specialised health services, as part of NIHR RSET. We found evidence of improved care & outcomes, but little on how centralisation is described - so we propose a typology for future work.
