Artificial intelligence in the health sector – a guide

When planning to use AI-based tools in the healthcare services, it is vital to understand that there are significant differences between ordinary software and AI products.

This is of key importance in realising the innovative potential of the technology and managing risk in an appropriate manner. To support enterprises that want to adopt the technology, DNV (formerly Det Norske Veritas) published a report in January 2023 with suggestions as to how to plan and structure implementation processes for AI-based tools (3). The report identifies key questions that need to be answered, and provides an overview of necessary assessments.
