Oxford Spinout RADiCAIT Revolutionizes Diagnostic Imaging
RADiCAIT, an Oxford spinout, utilizes AI to make diagnostic imaging more affordable and accessible.
“What we really do is we took the most constrained, complex, and costly medical imaging solution in radiology, and we supplanted it with what is the most accessible, simple and affordable, which is CT,”
Sean Walsh, RADiCAIT's CEO, highlights the challenges of traditional PET scans, which require fasting, injection of radioactive material, and a lengthy scanning process.
- Fasting for four to six hours before the scan
- Injection of radioactive material
- Waiting for an hour for the material to wash through the body
- Lying still for 30 minutes during the scanning process
RADiCAIT aims to simplify this process, making diagnostic imaging more accessible, especially for rural patients.
