SHIELD
Industry: Medical imaging tracking software
SHIELD is an automated software platform that tracks medical imaging in a treatment plan and notifies healthcare providers if follow-up imaging is not performed within the recommended timeline. It is the only fully automated and vendor-neutral technology available, and it can be used in any hospital and recover millions of dollars in imaging revenue.
SHIELD uses deep neural nets (DNN) and natural language processing (NLP) to scan radiology reports and assess follow-up recommendations for tracking. The DNN feeds information into software already integrating with Cerner and Epic, the electronic medical records (EMR) with the largest market shares.
The software helps catch early-stage cancer and improve patient care. The total addressable market in the United States includes 6,000 hospitals and 7,000 stand-alone imaging centers.
SHIELD's revenue model is a software-as-a-service subscription with cloud services.
