Alibaba DAMO Academy's DAMO RADAR hits Science: expert-level universal abdominal CT model, open-sourced
机器之心 · wechat · 2026-09-18
DAMO RADAR, a universal abdominal CT model from Alibaba DAMO Academy and Zhejiang University-affiliated hospitals, published in Science and open-sourced. It aligns CT volumes with radiology reports at the anatomical level using vision-language learning, reaching mean AUC 0.913 across 39,160 exams (18 structures, 146 findings), 0.895 across 8 external centers, and 0.883 on Stanford's Merlin set. In a 26-radiologist reader study, AI assistance lifted sensitivity by 10% and cut reading time 30.7%, narrowing the gap between junior and senior doctors. It marks DAMO's shift from single-disease models (DAMO PANDA) toward generalist medical imaging AI.
