Imaging AI software developer HOPPR is launching two new programs at RSNA 2025 for the HOPPR AI Foundry.
Founded by radiologists and technologists, HOPPR’s objective as a company is to democratize AI development in medical imaging. The new programs, Forward Deployed Services (FDS) and the Catalyst Program, are intended to broaden access to hands-on expert support, foundation models, and high-quality imaging datasets for the purpose of accelerating both research and applied development in medical imaging AI.
The Catalyst Program is offering early access to HOPPR foundation models, curated datasets, fine-tuning tools, computer tokens, training, and support from HOPPR’s machine-learning scientists. The program is designed to help clinical scientists, imaging researchers, and AI developers move from ideas to results more efficiently by eliminating common barriers such as fragmented data, infrastructure overhead, and inconsistent development practices, HOPPR said.
FDS is a collaborative partnership model that embeds experienced HOPPR machine-learning scientists, software engineers, data scientists, and clinical experts directly with partner teams. According to the company, through a phased engagement model, the FDS team will provide support to these teams through onboarding, development, integration, and deployment to help organizations build medical imaging AI solutions that optimize their workflows.
