About MONAI
Project MONAI is a collaborative initiative that brings together leading researchers, clinicians, and industry experts to advance medical imaging AI. Originally started by NVIDIA and King's College London, MONAI has grown into a vibrant community focused on developing and sharing best practices, tools, and frameworks for healthcare imaging across academia and enterprise.
Our mission is to accelerate the adoption of AI in healthcare imaging by providing robust, validated tools and fostering collaboration between researchers, clinicians, and industry partners. Building upon the foundations laid by toolkits like NVIDIA Clara Train, NiftyNet, DLTK, and DeepNeuro, MONAI Core has emerged as our flagship framework, embodying the community's collective expertise and innovation.
