SAM 3.1 powers 'Ctrl+F for X-rays' — finds 50 bones in 286 ms, plus a hammer on a surgical tray

A developer demoed a 'Ctrl+F for X-rays' tool: type a keyword and Meta's SAM 3.1 segments matching targets in medical imaging. Searching 'bone' on a hand X-ray highlights 50 bones in 286 ms; 'finger' and 'hand' work too.
The funniest moment: searching 'scissors' and 'hammer' on a surgical tray both hit — leaving surgeons in the family wondering why there's a hammer on the tray. Everything runs locally on a single NVIDIA A100, available on Hugging Face.
