Matt Harper, vice president of business development at Atlanta-based radiology AI software company Inflo Health has a side gig: pumpkin carver extraordinaire.
Harper is co-founder of Carvers & Creators with his friend Paul Dever. Carvers & Creators has produced more than 100 episodes of interviews with pumpkin carving experts and discussions of carving techniques. In 2019 he was featured on Season 19 of the Food Network's Halloween Wars (unbeknownst to him, his daughters sent his name in to apply for the show). His Instagram account showcases many of his creations.

He grew up with a love of art and found a creative outlet in sculpting. This "hobby" helps him recharge, he told AuntMinnie.com.
"Working in healthcare, imaging, and AI, with all of its complexities, is sometimes hard work -- although it's always rewarding," he said. "Sculpting and carving is an escape that also helps me recharge my batteries, and I love the joy it brings to others -- especially around the Halloween season."
Harper will attend the RSNA meeting in Chicago and will offer Inflo Health booth visitors pumpkin carving tips, he said.
Inflo Health recently joined the American College of Radiology's (ACR) Learning Network after qualifying for it through the college's ImPower program.
![A normal mammogram confirmed by three-year radiologic follow-up illustrates reader-marked regions of interest (ROIs) during (A) unaided (round 1) and (B) artificial intelligence (AI)–assisted (round 2) reading. Each colored dot represents an ROI for recall by a human reader. Readers could mark more than one ROI per case, represented by multiple dots of the same color. During AI-assisted reading, the AI system displayed three visible prompts: two with suspicion of malignancy scores of 35% (left mediolateral oblique [L MLO] and craniocaudal [L CC]) and one with a suspicion of malignancy score of 10% (right craniocaudal [R CC]), shown as polygonal overlays. Without AI, six of 10 readers (60%) marked a false-positive ROI. With AI assistance, this fell to two of 10 (20%). R MLO = right mediolateral oblique.](https://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/07/2026-07-14-radiology-mammogram-ai-auto-bias.H0bYO8QlWs.jpg?auto=format%2Ccompress&dpr=2&fit=crop&h=167&q=70&w=250)
