IFCN position statement: use of artificial intelligence in clinical neurophysiology
Clinical neurophysiology societies establish rigorous standards for AI use in EEG and nerve testing, prioritizing transparency and clinician oversight.
The International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology (IFCN) issued its first position statement on AI integration in clinical neurophysiology, covering EEG, EMG, and other modalities; it establishes principles for dataset diversity, training transparency, continuous monitoring, and clinician accountability. AI models without expert supervision must meet the highest accuracy, safety, and quality control standards before deployment.
