As a result, more than 200 companies have sprung up to create applications that use AI to automate different parts of the radiology process. CARPL, a radiology marketplace that counts Singapore’s government as a client, is focused on making it easier for healthcare providers to access and use these applications.

Dr Mahajan (junior) tells TechCrunch his experience at his family business entailed authoring research papers and giving presentations, and he published in top journals like The Lancet. The startup’s competitors are Blackford Analysis, DeepC and Incepto, but Dr Mahajan says CARPL differentiates by being the only platform with validation and monitoring capabilities that integrates with radiologists’ PACS workstations, which they use to analyze images. It’s starting with radiology because it “has the most vibrant ecosystem of AI apps,” Dr Mahajan says, but plans to expand into other sub-specialities like digital pathology, oncology, cardiology, dermatology, ophthalmology and gastroenterology.
