Philips' Diagnostic X-ray Suite to Incorporate Lunit's AI Software

It accurately detects 10 of the most common findings in a chest X-ray, prioritizes cases with abnormality scores, thereby allows fast triage of normal cases and enables radiologists to focus on reading abnormal cases. The algorithm performs at 97-99% accuracy rate, with its performance validated in major publications such as Radiology, JAMA Network Open, etc.

"For most patients, X-ray is the first diagnostic imaging step on their path to a definitive diagnosis," said Daan van Manen, General Manager for Diagnostic X-ray at Philips. "Radiology departments and their technologists are continually under pressure. They face high patient volumes, and every improvement in workflow can make a big impact. The high performance of Lunit's AI has been validated in major clinical journals to improve accuracy and efficiency in workflow. Our partnership with Lunit to incorporate their diagnostic AI into our X-ray suite combines with a host of smart workflow features in the Philips Radiography Unified User Interface (Eleva), our common platform across our digital radiography systems that enables a smooth and efficient, patient-focused workflow."

"By partnering with Philips, one of the biggest medical device companies globally, our AI will be available to its significant global installed base," said Brandon Suh, CEO of Lunit. "With the start of this partnership, we look forward to further expanding our collaboration to make data-driven medicine the new standard of care. Lunit will continue to build upon its current AI offering, making it better and better with time, and will continue to deliver best-in-class AI."
