Establishing a comprehensive artificial intelligence lifecycle framework for laboratory medicine and pathology: A series introduction.

Summary: Artificial intelligence (AI) is growing fast in medicine, but it is hard to actually use it safely in real labs and clinics. To fix this, experts created a step-by-step guide called CARE (Clinical AI Readiness Evaluator). CARE helps laboratories safely build, test, and use AI tools to diagnose diseases and run tests better. It looks at 8 different areas, like keeping data safe, following strict medical rules, and making sure the AI is easy for doctors to use. This guide will help labs use AI to give patients much better care.
