The Division of Intelligent Medical Systems (IMSY) is an interdisciplinary research division working at the interface of computer science, physics, and medicine. Our mission is to address the unique methodological and translational challenges of medical imaging AI to enable robust, clinically meaningful applications, with a particular focus on surgical AI. IMSY is highly international and strongly embedded in large collaborative research consortia, meta-research initiatives, and community-driven projects.
Project Description:
Medical imaging AI is advancing rapidly, however, research effort is often shaped by data availability rather than clinical need. MEDAL (Medical Imaging AGI's Last Exam is an international initiative funded by the Carl-Zeiss-Stiftung that aims to change this by building a globally relevant benchmark grounded in real clinical priorities. Through a large-scale crowdsourcing campaign, clinicians, and researchers worldwide will contribute challenging clinical questions and medical imaging data. An international, multidisciplinary expert panel will curate the benchmark to ensure clinical relevance, diversity, and rigor.
