Lunit INSIGHT, which is a medical AI solution for chest radiography and mammography, will be integrated into the Fujifilm Synapse PACS system, which will then be evaluated by 20 radiologists in Salud Digna, a company that provides diagnostic services to the Mexican population.

“We're happy to have Fujifilm and Salud Digna as our partners in beginning the onsite installation of Lunit's AI solutions for medical imaging,” said Brandon Suh, CEO of Lunit. “Mexico is one of the countries that experience constraint in the number of radiologists – 4,000 radiologists at 7,000 medical facilities, serving 130 million patients – that is less than one radiologist per facility. This is one of the situations that we had been hoping to contribute with our technology and we are confident that our medical AI solution can present a great opportunity to improve productivity.”

A recent study published in Radiology found that Lunit's AI solution surpassed physicians of all levels in accuracy. According to Lunit, its AI solution for chest X-ray has an accuracy level of 97-99 per cent and 97 per cent for mammography. “Fujifilm is very excited about the opportunity to have clinicians at Salud Digna evaluate our open AI platform in conjunction with Lunit's AI solutions,” said Tak Shimomura, Chief Technical Officer of Medical Informatics at FUJIFILM Medical Systems, USA, Inc.
