The American Heart Association AI TORCH Powered by Dandelion Health (Testing Outcomes and Research in Clinical Research) provides independent, scientifically rigorous evaluations of cardiology and stroke AI algorithms. Using the Heart Association’s gold-standard methodology, American Heart Association AI TORCH helps AI developers evaluate their solutions for clinical performance, safety, and impact—ensuring innovation serves patients and healthcare systems with integrity.

Why It Matters

AI can transform cardiovascular care, but how do you know which tools truly deliver?  American Heart Association AI TORCH validates performance with trusted, science-backed review. It helps developers and healthcare organizations lower adoption barriers, speed access to high-quality AI, and ensure tools compete on results—not hype.

Leveraging AI for Quality Improvement: Assessing Performance and ROI

AI is reshaping cardiovascular and stroke care. But the real question isn’t access to innovation — it’s performance, safety and real-world impact.

The AI TORCH Webinar Series explores how health systems can rigorously evaluate predictive algorithms and emerging AI tools before committing capital or changing workflows.

Each session in the series delivers practical insight on validation, bias, and measurable clinical impact as well as practical use cases of AI — so you can move forward with confidence.
