Machine learning (ML) has significant potential to transform healthcare, particularly in interpreting medical imaging. However, many studies evaluate ML models in controlled settings, highlighting the need for real-world validation to ensure clinical applicability. This study demonstrates that ML model generalizability is achievable in medical imaging, using the detection of intracranial hemorrhage on non-contrast CT scans as a case study, with the model showing strong performance in both controlled and real-world external validation datasets.
