Iterative Health vs Siemens Healthineers AI-Rad Companion
Siemens delivers AI-Rad Companion through teamplay as modules: Chest CT, Chest X-ray, Brain MR, Prostate MR and Organs RT. A radiology department buys the CT and MR modules. In a 2021 BMC Medicine study of 117 low-dose CT patients, per-patient nodule detection reached sensitivity 1.0 at specificity 0.708. A radiation oncology department buys Organs RT, the contouring module, which has four clearances from November 2020 to April 2026. The Chest X-ray module carries a footnote that it is not for sale in the U.S.
Iterative Health's SKOUT is for endoscopists. Its product page quotes high-performing endoscopists resecting one additional adenoma for every 4.5 patients and names no endoscopy processor or hardware. SKOUT carries six 510(k) clearances.
Neither product reads the other's images, so a GI practice and a radiology or radiotherapy department each contract for their own.
