AI Risks Lead ECRI's 2025 Health Tech Hazards List
ECRI ranks artificial intelligence risks as the top health technology hazard for 2025, while major partnerships between Siemens and NVIDIA bring new AI tools to medical imaging.
ECRI releases its annual list of top health technology hazards for 2025, placing the risks associated with artificial intelligence at the number one spot. Unmet technology support needs for home care models and cybersecurity threats from third-party vendors follow closely behind in the second and third positions. The report highlights the growing challenges healthcare organizations face as they integrate advanced technologies into clinical workflows.
At the RSNA 2024 conference, Siemens Healthineers partners with NVIDIA to adopt the MONAI Deploy platform for AI applications in medical imaging. Additional RSNA announcements include Konica Minolta integrating Fovia's 3-D visualization technology into its Exa PACS and Lunit unveiling a new converged solution for breast cancer risk management. Aidoc also introduces CARE1, a new clinical-grade foundation model designed specifically for CT imaging.
Several notable partnerships form across the healthcare IT landscape to expand patient access and care coordination. Hinge Health becomes available through Amazon Health Services, while Medical Home Network integrates Instacart's SNAP eligibility screener into its care management platform.
