SpineBench + SpineMed-450k: level-aware AI for spine care research

Fine-grained spine reasoning needs fine-grained data. SpineMed introduces SpineMed-450k—the first large-scale dataset explicitly designed for vertebral-level reasoning across X-ray, CT, and MRI—plus SpineBench, a clinically grounded benchmark. Using clinician-in-the-loop curation and traceable instructions, the ecosystem supports Q&A, multi-turn consultations, and report generation. Why it matters: Evaluations
