FDA gives a green light to cancer diagnosis AI
2021-10-02 00:00:00
Big news for digital diagnosis: a company called Paige.AI offers software that scans biopsied prostate tissue for cancerous cells. Launched in 2018, the company has previously worked with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center— the only healthcare AI company with access to patient tissue slides from the cancer treatment and research institution.
The FDA announced De Novo clearance, which is an alternate pathway for novel, low- or moderate-risk medical devices. The technology has already received a CE mark in the European Union. This clearance is big news for healthcare AI.
