Large-Scale Pilots of AI and GenAI for Medical Imaging
Commission opens call for proposals to fund large-scale pilots deploying AI in real-world clinical imaging
The European Commission has opened a Call for Proposals under the Digital Europe Programme to support large-scale pilots of cloud-based artificial intelligence systems for medical imaging. This call will fund two projects for a total of € 9 million in EU funding. The submission period is from 21 April 2026 to 1 October 2026.
The pilots will focus on healthcare settings where AI can assist the analysis of imaging data – including MRI, CT, X-ray, PET and ultrasound – by flagging findings for review by qualified medical professionals.
Medical centres participating in the pilots will also join the European Network of AI-Powered Advanced Screening Centres, ensuring that practical experience informs the broader European community. Results will be shared through Network events, enabling peer learning and the dissemination of good practices.
The pilots will build on existing European infrastructures, including Cancer Image Europe and HealthData@EU, to strengthen collaboration and accelerate the adoption of AI in healthcare across Europe.
