AI for Chest X-Ray Analysis: Classifying Six Pathologies with RAD-DINO-MAIRA-2

A researcher developed a multi-label classifier for six chest pathologies using the frozen RAD-DINO-MAIRA-2 encoder and a small trainable head. The model achieved a macro AUC of 0.9025 on the validation set, trained on 22,466 X-ray images from VinBigData and OpenI. The project cost about $300 on RunPod and is a research prototype, not a clinical device.
