Circle Cardiovascular Imaging vs Iterative Health
A GI endoscopy unit is SKOUT's buyer, and a cardiac CT lab is Circle's, because SKOUT reads colonoscopy video and cvi42 reads CT and MR.
SKOUT has a randomized trial behind it, run by the sponsor, with 22 endoscopists at 5 centers and 677 standard versus 682 CADe colonoscopies. Adenomas per colonoscopy rose from 0.83 to 1.05 (P=.002), while adenoma detection rate moved from 43.9% to 47.8% (P=.065, not significant). The device has six clearances, from K213686 on August 12, 2022 to K253664 on December 22, 2025.
Circle calls itself Canadian-based and founded in 2007. PubMed returns 133 results for cvi42, overwhelmingly research papers that use it as the measurement tool and not validations of it. Circle's price is not public.
Iterative Health's home page now leads with clinical research, though SKOUT keeps its own product page, where the call to action is a demo.
