Healthcare AI is moving faster than many health systems can govern it.In this episode of Straight Out of Health IT, David Hilderbrand, Chief Commercial Officer at Ferrum Health, joins Christopher Kunney to discuss the rapid rise of clinical AI, medical imaging AI consolidation, and the growing need for enterprise-level governance. He explains why health systems are no longer just asking which AI tools to buy, but how to monitor, manage, and understand the tools already running across their organizations. As AI enters through devices, platforms, service lines, and vendor relationships, CIOs and clinical leaders are facing a new kind of operational complexity. The conversation explores why effective AI oversight has become essential as adoption accelerates across healthcare.David breaks down the difference between AI committees, analytics, telemetry, and true governance. He explains that governance is not simply about knowing whether an algorithm is turned on, but about understanding how it behaves in clinical care and how it performs across different patient populations. Without that level of visibility, health systems risk overlooking issues such as bias, model drift, inconsistent performance, and patient impact. He argues that meaningful governance is critical to ensuring AI delivers safe, reliable, and measurable clinical value.David also shares how Ferrum Health approaches clinical AI through platforming, observability, and neutral model monitoring. Rather than recommending which AI tools organizations should adopt, Ferrum helps health systems gain visibility into their entire AI portfolio so they can make informed decisions about expanding, replacing, or retiring algorithms. The discussion also covers measuring ROI, recognizing the costs of underperforming AI models, and the importance of early disease detection. Hilderbrand concludes by explaining why AI governance should remain independent from vendor bias to support better long-term clinical and operational outcomes.Tune in to hear why clinical AI governance is becoming essential infrastructure for health systems, and why the future of healthcare AI depends on visibility, accountability, and trust.Key TakeawaysClinical AI is expanding quickly, but many health systems lack the tools to understand what is actually running across their environments. Vendor sprawl is creating new operational, financial, and clinical risks as AI tools enter through devices, platforms, and service lines. True AI governance goes beyond telemetry and analytics; it requires visibility into how algorithms interact with patients and clinical workflows. Health systems need unbiased observability to determine whether clinical AI tools are performing as promised. AI governance can help organizations reduce the cost of failed algorithms and improve the value of their AI investments. Early detection through clinical AI can improve patient outcomes while also reducing downstream care costs. Governance must remain separate from vendor bias so health systems can make clear decisions about which tools to keep, expand, replace, or remove. The next phase of clinical AI will require stronger infrastructure, especially as agentic AI and cloud-based workflow solutions grow.ResourcesConnect with David Hilderbrand on LinkedIn.Follow Ferrum Health on LinkedIn and visit their website.

One third of all data generated globally comes from the healthcare sector, yet a staggering 97% of it remains unused, trapped in siloed systems. This "big crime" of wasted potential is exactly what Simon Rost and his team at GE Healthcare are determined to solve. As the Global Marketing Officer for Enterprise Imaging, Simon sits at the helm of a business that touches over a billion patients a year. In a world where medical imaging is the bedrock of diagnosis, the challenge isn't just about capturing the image anymore—it's about what we do with the intelligence hidden within it. In this episode, Simon breaks down the transition from "Big Iron" hardware to the invisible power of enterprise medical imaging software. We dive into the rise of Agentic AI—AI that doesn't just analyze but takes action—and how GE Healthcare is moving toward a future of autonomous imaging to free up clinicians for what matters most: the patient. We also explore the critical shift in commercial models from CapEx (capital expenditure) to SaaS (software-as-a-service), the necessity of an open ecosystem over "walled gardens," and why interoperability must be the innovation of the decade. Simon even shares a personal anecdote about how GE's technology bookended the birth of his son, bringing the scale of MedTech down to the most human level. Whether you are a radiologist, a healthtech entrepreneur, or a data enthusiast, this conversation is a masterclass in how a global giant is retooling for the AI-first era of medicine!

Dr. Bradley Erickson, Director of the Mayo AI Lab, speaks with HexAI podcast host, Jordan Gass-Pooré in advance of the University of Pittsburgh's annual AI Summer School program in Medical Imaging Informatics organized by Pitt's Health and Explainable AI Research Lab (HexAI) and the Computational Pathology and AI center of Excellence (CPACE). The episode simulates two different professional vantage point scenarios to help students visualize the vast, multi-dimensional landscape of artificial intelligence in healthcare and radiology.The first half of the episode drops students directly into the vantage point of an AI expert attending a technical conference, where medical imaging informatics are being contrasted with everyday computer vision. Dr. Erickson explains how medical data often extends into multiple dimensions by incorporating complex spatial matrices and tissue properties like T1 and T2 tracking on MRIs, far surpassing standard 2D photographic pixels. He highlights why generic consumer AI tools like simple heat maps or saliency maps fall short of establishing clinical trust; while they can successfully point to where a brain tumor is, they completely fail to explain what that tumor is or why it is changing texture. Furthermore, Dr. Erickson discusses the profound challenge of "ground truth" uncertainty in medicine, explaining that training predictive algorithms is incredibly difficult because definitive biological labels are frequently masked by biological reactions or a lack of definitive longitudinal data.The second half of the podcast episode places students into the role and vantage point of a hospital administrator, exposing students to the active economic and structural deliberations currently playing out in modern hospital boardrooms. Dr. Erickson underscores the considerations and financial constraints that hospitals contend with and explains that while new narrowly focused diagnostic AI tools are attractive, the most immediate return on investment for hospitals often comes from practical, language-based text summarization and ambient patient recording systems. Crucially, this administrative perspective teaches students that the health industry desperately needs supportive roles beyond traditional doctors and researchers, such as AI project managers, integration specialists, and governance officers who can oversee model confidence and decide exactly when to adapt AI solutions or pull failing applications or algorithms back.Dr. Erickson emphasizes that entering this revolutionary field requires a willingness to learn through iteration, push back on assumptions, and manage the critical intersections of technology, safety, and human care. Through an open exploration of technical hurdles and administrative realities, the episode provides a rich conceptual primer for AI Summer School participants designed to cultivate critical thinking informing views on AI in medical imaging, hands-on project development and coding.

The full post by Thomson Chakramakkil can be read at https://blog.castac.org/2026/05/seeing-acting-believing-the-cyberknife-and-the-transformation-of-medical-imaging/. About the post: One cannot help but be convinced that this is what medical salvation looks like. In some respects, I am already a believer. In May 2025, a month after receiving a stage IV lung cancer diagnosis, I underwent image-guided radiation therapy under Dr. Sinha's supervision, becoming one of the very few patients  approved for this advanced form of stereotactic radiosurgery. After months of misdiagnosis from pulmonologists working through experience and statistical generalisation, it was computer-aided imaging that revealed the adenocarcinoma that was rapidly spreading through my body. By looking at the MRI image, any oncologist could tell that my cancer had metastasized into the brain, creating eight lesions that could not be targeted through traditional chemotherapy. At this stage, even radiation therapy was, to borrow Julie Livingston's words, “a necessary exercise in hope” (2012: 161).

James Hayes is on the cutting edge of medical technology innovation but he doesn't describe himself as a tech expert. Instead he says he's an educator at heart and so he makes some of his company's software 'open source', meaning it is free for anyone in the world to use. The Christchurch based former physics teacher speaks to Mihingarangi Forbes about how he's helped thousands of midwives through virtual reality and how his latest project will give hospitals another option to use instead of CT scans.

Cutting-edge research does not necessarily guarantee patient access.Welcome to Pharma Minds, Mini-Series “Who controls innovation?". In this mini-series, we explore one question in two parts: who controls innovation and who actually makes it happen.Artificial intelligence in oncology is booming. Public programs, private partnerships, and massive volumes of data are driving the field forward. Yet, as China closely observes European research, a critical issue remains: the gap between academic excellence and actual industrial deployment.In this episode, we explore where strategy meets reality with Prof. Nathalie Lassau, radiologist at the Gustave Roussy Institute (IGR), professor at Paris Saclay University, and INSERM researcher.Prof. Lassau is a master of execution. From labeling 55,000 metastases to integrating her innovations into ultrasound machines worldwide, she has spent her career bridging the gap between research, clinical practice, and private industry.Driven by relentless pragmatism and resilience, she collaborates with giants like INRIA, Canon Medical, OWKIN, and Guerbet to build revolutionary platforms for cancer prevention and treatment.But despite these massive efforts, the patient often remains caught in a fragile position between lab breakthroughs and bedside access.In this episode, we cover:◾️ The reality of AI in Oncology: How massive data and public-private partnerships are transforming cancer care.◾️ The execution gap: Why Europe produces world-class research but struggles with equal patient access.◾️ Building bridges: Prof. Lassau's insights on forcing collaboration between academia and the private sector.◾️ The global observation: How China is watching Europe's AI advancements.◾️ The power of resilience: How overcoming structural obstacles is required to drive true medical innovation.If Europe excels in AI research, why does access remain unequal? Is it regulation, industrial caution, or the fragmentation of our healthcare systems?

After suffering from a severe injury that left her in chronic pain for years—relying on morphine and mobility aids—Brandy was told by doctors there was nothing more they could do. Determined to find answers, she turned to medical research and discovered a deeper layer of healing rooted in the mind-body connection. What she uncovered challenges conventional approaches to chronic illness. Brandy now demonstrates, under medical thermal imaging, how individuals can reduce pain and inflammation in real time by shifting subconscious emotional patterns. This isn't about positive thinking—it's about identifying and changing the specific emotional "ingredients" that influence the nervous system and immune response.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Mind-Body Connection & Real-Time Healing Emotional Patterns & Chronic Illness Subconscious Mind vs Conscious Belief Role of Trauma, Guilt & Fear Nervous System & Pattern Conditioning Brandy's Injury & Recovery Journey Live Pain Reduction Demonstration   More from Brandy Gillmore: Website: brandygillmore.com Instagram: @brandygillmore X: @BrandyGillmore Facebook: Brandy Gillmore   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Dr. Daniel Sodickson is Chief Medical Scientist at Function Health and author of the new book, The Future of Seeing: How Imaging Is Changing Our World. Building on the drive to improve medical imaging, AI and neural networks are now reshaping image interpretation and how and what data are collected. This approach produces high-quality results with minimal additional data and is inspiring innovative scanning techniques and equipment design. The future of medical imaging is the everywhere scanner, enhancing a single-shot session with a large hospital machine with continuous health monitoring through wearables and devices integrated into everyday life.  Daniel explains, "One of the things that imaging can do is peel away all of the obscuring layers of skin or skull or whatever else there is, without having to make a single cut, and show us the inner workings, show us inner space, what's inside. I think that means being able to detect tumors early enough that they can be cured, to guide surgeries, to try to understand what normal anatomy is, and exactly when it turns abnormal. So I think the ability to see what was once invisible has become so much a part of medicine that it's almost hard to imagine it without it." "There are many analogies between inner space and outer space, and between the tools we have built as humans over the millennia to inspect them. I guess what I'd say, though, is that somehow the inspection of inner space, that sort of medical imaging for understanding our health, is a little bit more intimate. It causes us to ask very personal questions like, " Am I okay? Are my kids okay? Am I normal? What is normal? I think when we look at other types of imaging, imaging the world around us, imaging the cosmos a great distance from us, there are also existential questions, but it's really more, where do I fit in the big picture?

When the disruptive power of Artificial Intelligence is discussed, the fate of the radiologist is often the cautionary tale: a specialist whose job is supposedly obsolete. In fact, the opposite is true. We face a severe global shortage of medical imaging specialists, worsened by a 10% annual increase in studies. Not to mention burnout, as specialists have to interpret more than one image per second just to keep up. AI is emerging not as a threat, but as a critical complement. AI is poised to offer opportunities beyond better diagnosis and access to care.  Join us as we explore the future of diagnostic imaging  with our guest, Dr. Akshay Chaudhari, Assistant Professor of Radiology and Biomedical Data Science at Stanford, and the co-founder of Cognita Imaging, a pioneering clinical AI company.

In this eye-opening episode, we take a closer look at two health concerns hiding in plain sight — the radiation risks of medical imaging in children and the hidden heavy metals lurking in popular protein supplements.First, we unpack the latest research on how diagnostic imaging — from CT scans to X-rays — can increase long-term cancer risks for kids. Then, we switch gears to the fitness world to ask: Is your protein shake as clean as you think it is? You might be surprised by what recent lab tests have found.www.georgebatista.com

Medical imaging, like X-rays and CT scans, are routine, non-invasive and painless tools used by doctors to make diagnoses. But a recent study of about 4 million children published in the New England Journal of Medicine suggests that the radiation exposure from imaging could pose a risk for pediatric cancer. John Yang speaks with Dr. Rebecca Smith-Bindman, the study’s lead author, to learn more. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy

About a year ago, a research team at Stanford Engineering led by Guosong Hong published a paper about their work to use a common food dye to make mouse skin transparent. Their findings made a big splash and have the potential to provide a range of benefits in health care. You can imagine that if we have the ability to see what's going on under the skin without having to cut into it, or use radiation to get a clear look, this could improve everything from invasive biopsies to painful blood draws.

Machine learning is transforming scientific research across disciplines, but many scientists remain skeptical about using approaches that focus on prediction over causal understanding. That's why we are excited to have Christoph Molnar return to the podcast with Timo Freibusleben. They are co-authors of "Supervised Machine Learning for Science: How to Stop Worrying and Love your Black Box." We will talk about the perceived problems with automation in certain sciences and find out how scientists can use machine learning without losing scientific accuracy.• Different scientific disciplines have varying goals beyond prediction, including control, explanation, and reasoning about phenomena• Traditional scientific approaches build models from simple to complex, while machine learning often starts with complex models• Scientists worry about using ML due to lack of interpretability and causal understanding• ML can both integrate domain knowledge and test existing scientific hypotheses• "Shortcut learning" occurs when models find predictive patterns that aren't meaningful• Machine learning adoption varies widely across scientific fields• Ecology and medical imaging have embraced ML, while other fields remain cautious• Future directions include ML potentially discovering scientific laws humans can understand• Researchers should view machine learning as another tool in their scientific toolkitStay tuned! In part 2, we'll shift the discussion with Christoph and Timo to talk about putting these concepts into practice. What did you think?
