Checklist for Artificial Intelligence in Medical Imaging (CLAIM): A Guide for Authors and Reviewers
CLAIM provides a structured way to report AI research in medical imaging.
What the paper explores
This journal editorial introduces the Checklist for Artificial Intelligence in Medical Imaging. It adapts established reporting principles to applications including classification, image reconstruction, text analysis and workflow optimization, emphasizing sufficient methodological detail for critical review and reproducibility.
How to interpret the evidence
CLAIM is a reporting framework rather than a clinical validation study or regulatory standard. A complete manuscript can still describe a model with limited generalizability.
Questions for MedTech teams
Use a clear reporting structure to connect data selection, methods and results. Review subsequent versions of reporting frameworks before applying them to a new study.
