iCAD, Inc. (NASDAQ: ICAD) a global leader in clinically proven
AI-powered cancer detection solutions, today announced commercial
availability of ProFound Cloud. The innovative
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform provides medical providers
with a cost-effective, secure, and scalable means to access and
deploy the latest ProFound Breast Health Suite of AI solutions.
“With the commercial launch of ProFound Cloud, iCAD
is enabling interoperability and access to Breast AI Solutions at
enterprise scale, revolutionizing global access to cutting-edge AI
solutions in breast health,” said Dana Brown, president, and CEO of
iCAD. “Through the power of the cloud and our partnership with
Google, we empower medical providers to enhance patient outcomes by
helping detect cancer earlier.”
Powered by Google Cloud architecture and Google’s
Health AI innovations, ProFound Cloud integrates a lightweight edge
client and cloud-based components. Together, they securely
transport and process mammography screening data between imaging
sources, such as imaging modalities and Picture Archive and
Communications Systems (PACS) and the cloud-based AI. The processed
data is seamlessly delivered to systems that utilize AI outputs,
including mammography review workstations, PACS and image and data
storage systems.
“The healthcare landscape is shifting towards
technology-as-a-service models, avoiding the pitfalls of investing
in rapidly outdated hardware and software,” continued Brown. “As AI
relies heavily on specialized hardware like graphical processing
units (GPUs), setting up and upgrading both software and hardware
becomes increasingly complex. Cloud-based solutions, like ProFound
Cloud, address this challenge by providing Software as a Service
(SaaS) to ensure that all customers access the latest technology
without the initial hardware investment, support contracts, and
constant updates. Moreover, ProFound Cloud provides facility
administrators the ability to access the administration site,
enabling them to update configurations and perform administrative
tasks in multiple languages.”
“ProFound Cloud represents a significant
advancement in the field of radiology, providing a seamless and
standardized solution for accessing the latest AI technologies for
our imaging network,” remarked Matt Dewey, chief information
officer at Wake Radiology, a ProFound Cloud early access
beta-testing facility. “This platform will undoubtedly streamline
our workflow and improve our ability to deliver high-quality care
while increasing volumes to our patient community across The
Triangle region of North Carolina.”
“ProFound Cloud is a prime example of how
collaboration in healthcare technology drives innovation,” said
Shweta Maniar, global director of Life Science Strategy &
Solutions, Google Cloud. “By offering AI solutions in a scalable
cloud environment, iCAD empowers healthcare providers to deliver
earlier, more accurate diagnoses, potentially improving outcomes
for countless patients.”
ProFound Cloud is designed to support patients,
providers and partners while facilitating the management of diverse
data types critical for comprehensive healthcare analysis. This
includes 2D and 3D mammography images alongside all cancer images,
in parallel, it stores limited images of benign, recall and normal
cases. ProFound Cloud also manages ProFound Risk and Density
assessment results, radiology and pathology reports and detection
results, while ensuring seamless access to critical diagnostic
information. Importantly, ProFound Cloud securely handles
de-identified patient information and provider data, adhering to
strict privacy and compliance standards. The comprehensive approach
enables robust analytics for informed decision-making.
