Lunit teams up with SEHA for testing AI-based radiology via UAE's largest healthcare network

South Korea-based startup Lunit has signed a collaboration agreement with the Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (SEHA), part of Pure Health, the UAE's largest healthcare network. 

Lunit and SEHA will proceed with a proof of concept (POC) of the Lunit INSIGHT suite, the company's artificial intelligent (AI) solution for radiology, at medical institutions across the Middle East. The POC will include SEHA's trial of the Lunit INSIGHT CXR, an AI solution for chest X-ray analysis, and the Lunit INSIGHT MMG, an AI solution for mammography analysis, for evaluation.

SEHA is a comprehensive healthcare network under the UAE's largest healthcare provider Pure Health, a brand of scientific innovation that combines imagination and advances in technology. Established in 2007, the independent public joint stock company currently operates 14 hospitals and primary healthcare clinics with a total of more than 3,000 beds.

"Through this MoU, we will work with Lunit to implement Korea's world-class medical AI imaging solution during the POC experiments," said Dr Afra Rashed Saeed Almesaied Alneyadi, Radiologist, at SEHA. "Our goal is to provide better medical services to our patients by improving SEHA's medical image analysis programme."
