From Lab to Clinic: Build Clinical AI Infrastructure, Not More Demos
summary
Hospitals build a local API running models on two high-performance GPUs behind the firewall to power an agentic workflow that reads longitudinal records, retrieves evidence, calls tools, and returns sourced answers. The on‑prem server costs about €80,000 and pays back in roughly a year versus a simulated cloud bill of 200–800€/day cloud equivalent. The system processes roughly a Harry Potter book every 10 seconds, trading top‑end scale for privacy, speed, stability, and institutional control.
