Aidoc, an Israel-based provider of AI solutions for radiologists, announced that it has raised $27M, bringing its total funding to $40M. The Series B round, led by Square Peg Capital, will be used to grow Aidoc's technology and go-to-market team to support the high market demand for its products.

The funding comes as Aidoc announced that it has analysed its millionth patients CT scan in real-time – the largest number of images analysed by an AI tool and a landmark in the radiology AI ecosystem. In addition, Aidoc will be releasing its oncology line of products as well as the extension of its current suite for time-sensitive conditions to X-ray.

Aidoc's FDA-cleared and CE-marked solutions support and enhance the impact of radiologist diagnostic power, helping them expedite patient treatment and improve quality of care. Radiologists benefit from deep learning technology that is "Always-on", running behind the scenes and freeing them to focus on the diagnosis. Aidoc's solution flags the most critical, urgent cases where a faster diagnosis and treatment can be a matter of life and death.

What’s the trend

In April 2017, Aidoc received a funding of $7M in a Series A funding led by Tel Aviv VC firm TLV Partners. The application of AI in medical imaging and diagnostics has seen a lot of interest – in October last year, Visla Labs, an AI-powered medical imaging diagnostic startup, landed $3M in seed funding. Israel-based Zebra Medical Vision, secured a $30M Series C funding in June 2018. 

On the record
