An Israeli company that has developed artificial intelligence that quickly diagnoses cancerous tumors has signed a $5 million agreement in India and Australia.
CuratioDL‘s AI is capable of diagnosing cancerous tumors in 10 common types of cancer, including lung, kidney, ovarian, breast, and more.
It helps pathologists who are not experts obtain expert-level decision support for cancer diagnoses and treatment recommendations.
The AI can also match a patient and their cancer subtype to the right drug for them. This, in addition to the quick diagnosis, contributes significantly to the patient’s chances of healing and recovery.
The agreement was signed with TechIndia Infoway, which provides services to hospitals in India and Australia.
CuratioDL’s first product will detect diagnostic priority between different biopsies and will be marketed in 2023 to pathology laboratories and hospitals.
During its development, the company took biopsy samples from around 7,000 patients, and had a 95 per cent success in the ability to diagnose a cancerous tumor.
