Over recent years, there has been considerable excitement about the extraordinary opportunities that machine learning (ML) may offer in the healthcare of tomorrow. Given the potential of ML technology in facilitating the quantification of large and complex
datasets, medical imaging has witnessed rapid and revolutionary developments. However, a limitation of current ML developments for medical imaging is that they have overwhelmingly and almost entirely targeted imaging applications in high-income settings. Hence,
it is important to promote and accelerate the development of trustworthy and accessible ML solutions for medical imaging in low-to-middle-income (LMIC) countries to advance global healthcare. </div>

This workshop aims to connect researchers, medical experts, policymakers, and regulators from Africa and beyond to share experiences and initiatives in promoting ML for medical imaging on the African continent. With this workshop, we hope to showcase exceptional
research done on the continent, raise awareness about initiatives, attract collaborators, promote new research and innovation in the field to address Africa-specific healthcare challenges and encourage similar initiatives for promoting practical ML solutions
for resource-limited settings around the world.</div>
