OpenMed 1.8: On-Device Clinical De-identification
dark-night-rises · reddit · 2026-07-09
OpenMed 1.8 has been released, focusing on clinical text de-identification that runs entirely locally. It ensures patient data never leaves the device and requires no cloud calls or API keys. The update adds Android OpenMedKit, iOS/Swift and React Native bindings, and browser support, enabling redaction on mobile, web, and offline environments.
The post also mentions that verify-pdf can detect fake redaction issues where text remains copyable despite black box overlays. New features include DICOM de-identification, language detection packages, and clinical entity recognition domains. The maintainer also noted that version 1.9 is currently in open development with over 400 open issues for community contribution.
