Aidoc

What is Aidoc?

Aidoc is one of the world's leading clinical artificial intelligence platforms for radiology, founded in 2016. Cleared by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for multiple algorithms, the platform analyzes medical imaging exams (CT scans, X-rays, MRIs) immediately after capture, scanning for acute and severe abnormalities that require urgent intervention.

How it works

The software runs in the background, integrated into the hospitals' PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System). As medical images are uploaded to the system, Aidoc's algorithms perform an immediate pixel-by-pixel analysis. If a potentially life-threatening condition (such as pulmonary embolism, stroke, or intracranial hemorrhage) is identified, the system sends a direct visual alert and repositions the exam to the top of the on-call radiologist's worklist.

Key features

• Real-Time Radiological Triage: Continually analyzes exams in the background without workflow interruption.
• Critical Pathology Detection: Specific cleared algorithms to identify stroke (vascular accidents), brain hemorrhages, pulmonary embolisms, spinal fractures, among others.
• Native PACS/RIS Integration: Integrates seamlessly with existing hospital medical archiving and viewing systems.
• Instant Alerts and Notifications: Pop-up alerts and notifications on physicians' desktops for critical exams flagged by the AI.

Who is it for

• Trauma Hospitals and Emergency Rooms that constantly handle urgent exams and need to reduce time to diagnosis and treatment.
• High-Volume Radiology Clinics looking to increase reporting accuracy and speed.
• Integrated Health Networks focused on increasing safety and quality in the medical care workflow.
