The internship - Foundation model adaptation for Multiple Sclerosis

    • Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a complex chronic neurological disease. Early and accurate diagnosis via MRI, relying on subtle, tiny lesions and specialized sequences (FLAIR, SWI), remains a significant challenge in clinical practice.
    • Foundation models (like DINOv2) leveragingSelf-Supervised Learning (SSL) have revolutionized computer vision, showcasing superior generalization. While their medical adaptations like Rad-DINO and Curia (developed at Raidium, pre-trained on 200M+ medical images that come from 150K CT scans and MRIs) exist, adapting them for MS imaging faces diminishedefficacy. 
    • This challenge arises because the MS-defining features—specifically the tiny, sub-millimeter lesions and the data from specialized sequences (SWI-m, SWI-ph)—constitute ahighly granular and underrepresented domain within large-scale medical pretraining datasets.

    • In this internship, you will:
    • Adapt or pre-train a vision transformer with SSL (e.g. Curia or DINOv2 from scratch) on brain MRI images leveraging large public and private datasets
    • Investigate and apply parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) methods, such as LoRA, to adapt the pre-trained model for specific MS tasks
    • Learn everything about the diagnosis of MS on brain MRI (McDonald Criteria, Central Vein Sign (CVS) and paramagnetic rim lesions (PRLs), …)
    • Work directly with radiologists to gain feedback and validate model performance against clinical ground truth
    • Establish robust evaluation pipelines to quantitatively assess model performance and benchmarking against leading foundation models

The internship - Foundation model adaptation for Multiple Sclerosis

    • Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a complex chronic neurological disease. Early and accurate diagnosis via MRI, relying on subtle, tiny lesions and specialized sequences (FLAIR, SWI), remains a significant challenge in clinical practice.
    • Foundation models (like DINOv2) leveragingSelf-Supervised Learning (SSL) have revolutionized computer vision, showcasing superior generalization. While their medical adaptations like Rad-DINO and Curia (developed at Raidium, pre-trained on 200M+ medical images that come from 150K CT scans and MRIs) exist, adapting them for MS imaging faces diminishedefficacy. 
    • This challenge arises because the MS-defining features—specifically the tiny, sub-millimeter lesions and the data from specialized sequences (SWI-m, SWI-ph)—constitute ahighly granular and underrepresented domain within large-scale medical pretraining datasets.

    • In this internship, you will:
    • Adapt or pre-train a vision transformer with SSL (e.g. Curia or DINOv2 from scratch) on brain MRI images leveraging large public and private datasets
    • Investigate and apply parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) methods, such as LoRA, to adapt the pre-trained model for specific MS tasks
    • Learn everything about the diagnosis of MS on brain MRI (McDonald Criteria, Central Vein Sign (CVS) and paramagnetic rim lesions (PRLs), …)
    • Work directly with radiologists to gain feedback and validate model performance against clinical ground truth
    • Establish robust evaluation pipelines to quantitatively assess model performance and benchmarking against leading foundation models

About Raidium
Raidium is developing the most advanced radiological LVLM (Large Vision Language Model); The first version of our Foundation model, Curia, is now the state-of-the-art copilot of the new generation of radiological image manipulation software.
