Augmento's FDA clearance represents a major milestone for the healthcare industry
DeepTek.ai, a Pune-based radiology artificial intelligence (AI) startup, has made a significant breakthrough with its AI-powered Radiology Workflow Management Solution, Augmento. This platform has received 510(k) clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for clinical use, making it a reliable choice for healthcare providers around the world.
The Indian Radiological and Imaging Association has released a report indicating a critical shortage of radiologists in the country. The ratio of radiologists to population is only one per 100,000 people, which is significantly lower than the World Health Organisation's recommended standard of one radiologist per 10,000 people.
DeepTek.ai’s AI-Powered Augmento platform addresses this issue by bringing in AI in a seamless and in a responsible way to revolutionise radiology workflows and transform productivity, quality, and patient care.
Augmento is currently servicing 350+ hospitals and imaging centres across India touching about 60,000 lives every month. Outside India, it is deployed across several countries in the APAC region. The Singapore government as a part of its National AI strategy has been adopting the Augmento platform in key hospitals.
