Welcome to the slightly delayed, May edition of The Radiology Rundown.
May provided a flurry of news, updates and changes in the world of medical imaging, which I will try to summarise here.
UKIO 2025
I returned from the UK’s premier radiology conference this week (yes, I know it’s June), with plenty of updates and insight on the market.
The first conference I ever attended back in 2017, and it’s still delivering today.
It’s one of the smaller events on the calendar, but it’s still the perfect opportunity to network with everyone involved in the UK market. Who in my experience, are typically some of the most passionate and knowledgeable individuals you could hope to meet in the radiology world.
The general consensus is that sales of capital equipment in the first half of 2025 has been slow, but depending on government announcements there is optimism for the 2nd half of 2025 and into 2026.
The UK market is making good headway in AI, and although there was a reduced presence of AI companies exhibiting at UKIO this year, many of the key leaders at those companies were in attendance.
FDA Approvals
Gleamer announced CE clearance for Bone CT, their first CE-cleared CT application.
Hyperfine received FDA clearance for their Otive AI software for Swoop.
Subtle Medical confirmed their Health Canada approval for Subtle HD.
Funding Updates
A quieter month on funding announcements, expect this to change in the 2nd half of 2025.
Rad AI received an $8m Series C extension from four major health systems, taking their total Series C to $68m.
Finnish start-up AIATELLA secured €2m funding in the cardiovascular AI space.
Partnerships & Acquisitions
Lots and lots of partnerships announced this week involving:
– Intelerad and RadPair
– Ramsoft X Therapixel
– Enlitic X GE Healthcare
– Konica Minolta X Newvue
– Incepto x Coreline – USA
– Exo X Samsung Medison
