TEL AVIV, Israel, April 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Aidoc, the leading provider of AI solutions for radiologists, announced today a $27 million investment, bringing its total funding to $40M. The Series B round, led by Square Peg Capital, will be used to grow Aidoc’s technology and go-to-market team to support the high market demand for its products.
“From the 100 sites we’re already working with, mounting evidence is demonstrating real value to patients,” said Aidoc co-founder and CEO Elad Walach. “We feel a responsibility to get this technology into as many hospitals as possible, as soon as possible. Our aim is to reach 500 hospitals in the next 2 years and we’re proud to partner with Square Peg to support this growth.”
The funding comes as Aidoc announced that it has analyzed its millionth patients CT scan in real-time – the largest number of images analyzed by an AI tool and a landmark in the radiology AI ecosystem. In addition, Aidoc will be releasing its oncology line of products as well as the extension of its current suite for time-sensitive conditions to X-ray.
“Our evaluation process included numerous conversations with hospitals that are using Aidoc’s solution in clinical settings, and the value they bring to patient care became evident,” said Dan Krasnostein, Partner at Square Peg Capital. “Aidoc is the most mature company in AI for radiology, and we believe our partnership will help fuel their triple-digit growth.”
Aidoc’s FDA-cleared and CE-marked solutions support and enhance the impact of radiologist diagnostic power, helping them expedite patient treatment and improve quality of care.
