Abstract

This perspective provides a critical framework for evaluating the use of Generative AI (GenAI) in healthcare, informed by two roundtable events and a series of semi-structured expert interviews. By outlining key principles and risks-including mapping applications to GenAI strengths, ensuring rigorous evaluation frameworks, and fostering transparency and collaboration-it will support healthcare professionals and policymakers in navigating the ethical and impactful integration of GenAI into healthcare.
