Flexible subscription
model accelerates deployment of iCAD’s Breast AI Suite, the only complete solution
designed to comprehensively address today’s top imaging challenges

 

NASHUA, N.H. – August 29, 2022 – iCAD, Inc. (NASDAQ: ICAD), a global medical technology leader providing
innovative cancer detection and therapy solutions,
today announced that
a growing number of hospitals and imaging centers in the U.S. and Europe are increasingly
choosing to adopt iCAD’s Breast AI Suite, which includes
ProFound AI®, ProFound AI® Risk, and PowerLook® Density Assessment,
via a
subscription model.

 

“iCAD’s Breast
AI Suite is the only complete portfolio of first-in-kind, clinically proven
technologies for the detection of breast cancer, automated breast density
assessment and short-term personal risk evaluation. Customers are increasingly
validating the
unparalleled clinical performance of this solution along
with its market-leading multivendor flexibility. With our subscription model,
we extend this flexibility to the deployment of our technologies, making it
easier than ever for customers to experience the benefits these state-of-the-art
technologies offer – both quickly and affordably,” said Stacey Stevens,
President and CEO of iCAD, Inc.

 

iCAD’s subscription model offers an accelerated way for
customers to adopt, deploy and scale the Company’s technologies, with significantly
lower up-front costs, compared to a one-time license sale. These models also offer
customers the ability to add new functionalities more easily than in a one-time
license sale model, and without costly capital outlays while driving long-term recurring revenue opportunities for the Company.

“We recently decided to adopt iCAD’s
Breast AI technologies because it offers a comprehensive solution for breast
cancer screening that will not only help our team work more efficiently but
also will further differentiate our facility as a leader in breast care,” said Matthew
Rifkin, MD, Chair of Radiology at Mount Sinai South Nassau. “Furthermore,
adopting via iCAD’s subscription model enabled us to implement and deploy these
solutions more rapidly and seamlessly, and to be confident that our facility
will always be able to offer the highest level of algorithm performance as new
versions are released. Ultimately, these types of flexible and cost-effective
solutions are critical to our ability to continue to deliver the highest
quality patient care.”


“Our site was very pleased to learn
that iCAD now offers several ways to acquire their market-leading AI products
for breast cancer screening and diagnostics,” said Sophie Kerlaouezo, Chief of
the Facility at the Centre D’imagerie Médicale (CIMVI) in Vichy, France. “We
recently decided to purchase iCAD’s Breast AI Suite via the subscription model;
we found this option to be very flexible, and we were thrilled to learn that
updates to the algorithm and service are also included. The way iCAD is
implementing this is a game-changer for customers and something we have not
seen with other breast AI vendors.”


With the promise of quick scalability and easier
collaboration, subscription business models are projected to grow at a rate of
18% over the next three years across all industries, and health companies
offering this model are experiencing the most amount of growth in recent years
than any other sector,[i],[ii]” added Ms. Stevens.
“By extending this
subscription model to our global base of customers, we offer a means of
adoption that is as future-proof and flexible as our technology is while
creating a growing installed base of customers who we believe will generate
significant recurring revenue for years to come. We are pleased to be able to
deliver our innovative technologies in this more modernized fashion that is
leading the market, just as iCAD continues to lead the market in breast AI.”

iCAD’s Breast AI Suite includes
ProFound AI, the first AI cancer detection software for 3D mammography to be
cleared by the FDA, PowerLook Breast Density Assessment, which aids in accurate
and consistent density-based stratification and reporting, and ProFound AI
Risk, the world’s first and only clinical decision support tool that provides
an accurate short-term, breast cancer risk estimation that is truly
personalized for each woman, based on age, breast density, and mammographic
features.
