Nature Medicine shows domain native CT and MRI data can beat Internet trained neuroimaging AI
A health system trained visual model argues that medical AI needs clinical data gravity, not just bigger web crawls.
- Treat domain fit as a core model design choice, especially when public data misses the clinical distribution.
- Evaluate medical foundation models on real workflow tasks, including diagnosis, report generation, and triage.
- Do not assume bigger generic pretraining beats smaller but clinically native data.
