What ISMAI 2026 offers this audience
The Florence symposium is patient-centred and places patient safety at the centre of its editorial line.
The programme keeps ethics, equity and communication together with clinical implementation, so patient-facing questions are not separated from operational ones.
A multidisciplinary audience allows patient perspectives to be heard alongside clinical, scientific, governance and technical ones.
Core questions covered
These are the questions the programme is designed to hold open for discussion. They set the scientific and professional register a reader in this audience can expect.
- How is patient safety protected when medical AI enters a pathway?
- How is consent handled when a decision is informed by an algorithmic system?
- How is dignity preserved in the communication of uncertainty and of AI-supported findings?
- How is equity considered when AI tools are introduced across different populations?
