Foundation models (FMs) are driving a prominent shift in biomedical imaging, from task-specific models to unified backbone models for diverse tasks. This opens an avenue to integrate imaging, pathology, clinical records and genomics data into a composite system. However, this vision contrasts sharply with modern medicine’s trajectory towards more granular sub-specialization. This tension, coupled with…
