Lung Health

Strengthening lung health through integrated screening systems.

Early detection is the foundation of effective lung health programs. Yet millions remain undiagnosed due to limited radiology access, fragmented workflows, and inconsistent triage capacity. We support Ministries of Health, NGOs, and implementation partners in scaling AI-powered, digitally integrated lung health screening systems designed for real-world conditions.

Why lung health screening must evolve

Lung disease detection remains uneven due to structural limitations in infrastructure, workforce capacity, and data integration. Addressing these gaps requires coordinated, system-level screening solutions.

Expanding lung health priorities beyond tuberculosis

TB remains a leading infectious cause of death, with while demand grows for broader lung health services, including pediatric TB, post-TB lung disease, silicosis, and other lung abnormalities.

Persistent access and capacity gaps

Many countries face shortages of trained radiologists, limited imaging infrastructure outside tertiary facilities, inefficient use of molecular tests, and fragmented data systems.

The need for integrated screening systems

Closing the detection gap requires coordinated solutions that combine imaging, AI-supported triage, digital data platforms, and long-term implementation support.

Our approach

We develop integrated solutions that support earlier,
more effective lung health screening and care.

Mobile Clinics in Nigeria

X-ray solutions build for the field

Our wide-range of diagnostic systems support decentralized screening with high-quality imaging in various health settings.

AI for TB and lung health screening

CAD4TB+ analyzes chest X-rays within seconds and supports early TB detection with high accuracy. It operates offline, is CE certified (CAD4TB AI v8 algorithm), and meets WHO’s performance standards.

Global 24/7 support on location

Ensure long-term performance through installation, training, preventive maintenance, and local partnerships. We remain engaged to support system uptime and provide local capacity-building.

More than a solution provider. A committed partner in strengthening lung health screening.

 

We support you in building coordinated screening systems that improve early detection, optimize limited resources, and strengthen long-term program performance. Our integrated approach helps you move from fragmented activities to measurable, system-wide impact.

Standardize early detection across your network

Enable consistent, AI-supported triage decisions at every screening site, including facilities without on-site radiologists.

Expand access beyond tertiary hospitals

Bring high-quality imaging closer to underserved communities through mobile and decentralized screening models.

Optimize your confirmatory testing resources

Prioritize molecular testing more effectively, reduce unnecessary cartridge use, and improve cost-efficiency across your program.

Gain real-time oversight and program intelligence

Use integrated digital platforms to monitor performance, identify hotspots, and allocate resources strategically at national scale.

How we help

We support governments and healthcare partners in strengthening screening programs for tuberculosis (TB), lung disease, and maternal health. By combining digital imaging, AI, integrated workflows, and long-term service support, we help ensure screening is consistent, measurable, and connected to national health systems.

Occupational lung disease screening

Occupational lung health programs need screening that is consistent, measurable, and able to stand up to clinical and audit requirements. Find out how we support workforce screening with standardized interpretation, integrated reporting, and proactive service planning to maintain uptime in high-volume settings.

Migrant and cross-border screening

Migrant and cross-border settings make continuity of TB screening and follow-up harder to manage. See how mobile screening models stay connected to national databases, reporting, and monitoring to support continuity across movement.

Decentralized and community screening

Decentralized tuberculosis (TB) screening brings services closer to communities. Discover how AI-supported portable X-ray, integrated workflows, and secure reporting support outreach that connects to national systems.

National tuberculosis screening programs

National TB programs are under pressure to expand coverage, improve detection, and manage costs as funding models evolve. Learn how we support governments with integrated TB screening systems designed to fit existing health infrastructure and national strategies.

Clinically validated solutions

We have an extensive range of articles, scientific papers, and studies that
showcase the impact of our full range of products in the field.

Co-creating the future of lung health

Dr Adeel Tahir Director TB Program, Mercy Corps, Pakistan

“The best thing that CAD4TB has done that accuracy of diagnosis has been increased. When we use the score generated by CAD4TB, our physicians who are in the chest camps, they are quite comfortable and confident that ordering the sputum sample for these patients for GeneXpert would yield results. And the accuracy of software is quite high.”

Dr Stella Zawedde-Muvanja Research Scientist- The Infectious Disease Institute, College of Health Sciences, Makerere University- Uganda

“In Uganda, CAD4TB is utilised in two settings: community outreaches and health facilities. For outreaches, digital X-rays and CAD machines housed in the OneStopTB Clinic vans travel through rural areas for widespread screening. Here, everyone at the outreach receives a chest X-ray as the initial screen, regardless of TB symptoms. If their score is 50 or higher, they proceed to GeneXpert testing. In health facilities, CAD4TB enhances the efficiency of the triage system, being used in a slightly different way.”

Dr. Bethrand Odume Executive Director, KNCV Nigeria

“KNCV Nigeria pioneered the chest X-ray with CAD4TB in Nigeria with WoW truck since 2018 which has been a key in our targeted TB case finding as well as advocacy especially within communities and hard-to-reach locations. Moreover, we are scaling-up digital X-ray with AI for TB case finding thanks to the introduction and pilot of Delft Light Backpack. The pilot had led to what we have been able to do not only at KNCV Nigeria but also at the National Program to help bridge the gap in TB case finding. Digital X-ray with AI has shown efficiency in TB case finding as number needed to screen and test had reduced significantly.”
