Hologic Genius AI vs Optellum Virtual Nodule Clinic

Optellum scores lung cancer risk for CT nodules and Hologic sells mammography AI with its own scanners, so a pulmonology-led nodule clinic and a breast imaging service buy separately. Optellum's single openFDA record, K202300 decided March 5, 2021, covers tracking, assessment and characterization of incidentally detected pulmonary nodules on CT, including the LCP-CNN score for pulmonologists and radiologists. Its reimbursement page lists CPT Category III codes 0721T and +0722T and a 2026 Medicare hospital outpatient rate of $650.50 under APC 1508, a national average before deductibles. The vendor says its LCP AI is integrated with RapidAI's Rapid Enterprise. Hologic holds four Genius AI Detection clearances, from K201019 (November 18, 2020) to K243341 (July 31, 2025). Its product page describes the software as fully integrated on the 3Dimensions and Selenia Dimensions platform, and it is sold with Hologic 3D Mammography systems, which fits a screening service already on Hologic scanners.
