Does Your Radiology AI Actually Work Here? HOPPR Has an Answer

Author: John Lynn March 27, 2026 Duration: 23:08

AI models look great in validation studies. They clear regulatory review. Then they land in your hospital with different scanners, different workflows, and different staffing realities. That is where performance starts to drift.

In this conversation, Dr. Khan Siddiqui, Founder and CEO of HOPPR, discusses a simple question: Does your AI actually work here? We explore why frozen AI models struggle site to site, how image acquisition differences change AI performance, and why some of the most valuable AI use cases in radiology are operational and financial.

At the center of that discussion is what he calls an AI Foundry. Instead of shipping another fixed model, the Foundry gives health systems and radiology teams the infrastructure to fine-tune models against their own data, protocols, and risk thresholds. It shortens the path from idea to deployment and allows organizations to build solutions for problems that may exist in only one department. In other words, AI designed for a market of one.
