Episode Four, “Considerations on Acquiring Imaging Data for AI Developers” focuses on providing advice for AI developers seeking imaging data to train and refine their foundation models, including weighing the pros and cons of three main data sources: 1) the open-source market; 2) direct contracting with imaging facilities, hospitals and/or imaging centers, and 3) partnership with third-party data providers.

Vega Imaging Informatics President and CEO, Luke Bideaux, and Director of Global Sales, Al Kappel, discuss the challenges of the open-source market, which offers a get-what-you-get, rather than curated data model. Luke emphasizes the importance of starting the data seeking process creatively, focusing on the design of the AI solution and the type of data that will satisfy the goals of the design, rather than on the data that is readily available through the open-source market. Oftentimes, AI developers will find that their data needs cannot be met through the open-source market.
