Medical artificial intelligence (AI) company Lunit announced on the 7th that it has signed a supply contract for its AI cancer diagnosis solution, Lunit Insight, with Starvision Service GmbH (hereinafter referred to as Starvision), a German radiology medical institution network.
StarVision is the largest private radiology network operating 79 medical institutions across seven federal states in Germany. In particular, it has a leading position and influence in the German-language healthcare market, including Austria and Switzerland, and focuses on introducing cutting-edge technologies such as AI and providing high-quality, patient-centered medical services.
The supply contract period is five years, and Runit will provide three AI solutions to medical institutions within the Star Vision network: the chest X-ray AI image analysis solution 'Runit Insight CXR', the mammography AI image analysis solution 'Runit Insight MMG', and the 3D breast tomography AI image analysis solution 'Runit Insight DBT'.
Already, Hamburg-based Radiologische Allianz has implemented Lunit Insight MMG into its breast cancer screening program, while Die Radiologie, which operates more than 20 radiology medical institutions throughout Bavaria, is currently utilizing Lunit’s solution. The two medical institutions use Lunit’s solution for approximately 120,000 breast cancer screenings and diagnoses per year, and the solution is scheduled to be expanded to more Star Vision network medical institutions in the future.
“Supplying Lunit AI solutions to StarVision, the largest radiology network in the German-speaking world, is proof that our technology is highly trusted in the European market,” said Seo Beom-seok, CEO of Lunit. “This contract will be the start of our efforts to further strengthen Lunit’s position in Europe and ultimately allow more patients to benefit from early cancer diagnosis through AI.”
“Lunit’s AI solution has already significantly improved diagnostic accuracy by enabling Starvision clinicians to make faster and more accurate diagnoses,” said Uwe Pfeifer, CEO of Starvision. “The greatest achievement of this collaboration is that AI has enabled us to increase efficiency and spend more time on personalized care for each patient, which is what matters most.”
