From Chaos to Clarity - Segmed and Microsoft shared How Healthcare AI is Evolving
✅ From Traditional AI to Foundation Models Traditional AI: narrow, task-specific, heavy on supervised training Foundation Models: broad, multi-modal, adaptive with minimal fine-tuning ✅ Challenges in Accessing Medical Imaging Data Data silos and lack of standardization Complex de-identification processes Large file sizes and no easy cohort-building tools Bias from limited, non-diverse datasets ✅ What’s Needed for Foundation Models Multi-modal datasets: images, reports, clinical data Large-scale non-specific data for pre-training + smaller specific sets for tuning ✅ Segmed’s Solution Secure de-identification Searchability and cohort building Standardization across providers Expanded diversity: USA 50 states + 10 countries ✅ The Future Lower barriers to entry for AI development Broad, multi-modal models integrating radiology, pathology, and clinical history Democratizing healthcare innovation Foundation models aren’t just the future—they’re the catalyst for scalable, equitable healthcare AI. A big thank you to Ivan Tarapov, Sr. Director of Product Management for Multimodal Healthcare AI at Microsoft, for sharing his insights and vision during this session!
