Question on when to use models in practical settings #36

Dear authors,

Thanks so much for releasing this very useful code!

I have a related question that I hope to hear from you: I am assuming that radiologists or healthcare workers at NYU are using your models.

How do you determine when the models are good enough for practical use? Is it all up to a particular clinical standard? OR is there a set of general standards somewhere?

Any pointers would be much appreciated!!
