CXR Foundation is a machine learning (ML) model that produces embeddings based on images of chest X-rays. The embeddings can be used to efficiently build AI models for chest X-ray related tasks, requiring less data and less compute than having to fully train a model without the embeddings.
The model has been optimized for chest X-rays, but researchers have reported success using it for other types of X-rays, including X-rays of other body parts and even veterinary X-rays.
As a Health AI Developer Foundations (HAI-DEF) model trained on large scale datasets, CXR Foundation helps businesses and institutions in healthcare and life sciences do more with their chest X-ray data with less data, accelerating their ability to build AI models for chest X-ray image analysis.
