Partnering with Oxipit, Unilabs enhances its chest X-ray diagnostics with AI technology

Unilabs, a leading diagnostic services provider in Europe, has announced a groundbreaking partnership with AI solutions provider Oxipit. This collaboration aims to transform radiology workflows across the continent, starting with the integration of Oxipit's AI technologies, ChestLink and ChestEye, into Unilabs' network.

The selection of Oxipit's AI solutions follows a rigorous international evaluation process. Baber Qazi, Head of Unilabs Radiology, expressed the company's commitment to collaborating with AI vendors who offer valuable solutions that meet their high validation standards. The results from the evaluation demonstrated that ChestLink and ChestEye are performing in line with Unilabs' expectations.

Henrik Agrell, GM of TMC Unilabs and leader for the Unilabs AI Centre of Excellence, expressed his excitement about integrating Oxipit's AI technology into their radiology practices. The partnership is designed to optimize workflows by streamlining the review of normal chest X-rays, allowing radiologists to focus on urgent and complex cases.

The initial rollout of these AI solutions will begin in Portugal, with the option for use across the entire Unilabs group in Europe. The European countries affected by this joint integration include Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Poland, Germany, France, and Switzerland.

These AI solutions are equipped to detect 75 common radiological findings, and will be integrated into Unilabs' radiology workflows, streamlining chest X-ray reporting through automated triage and second-reading capabilities. The collaboration is expected to result in faster reporting, improved accuracy, and greater efficiency, reducing delays in diagnosis and treatment.

This partnership marks a significant step forward in the integration of AI technology into healthcare services, and Unilabs' commitment to leveraging innovative solutions to improve patient care.
