CortexAssist integrates with PACS and RIS systems to prioritize urgent cases, generate structured preliminary reads, and surface contextual insights such as prior studies and relevant lab values. Cortex emphasizes human-in-the-loop review by board-certified radiologists.

The funding will expand CE and FDA regulatory work, scale deployment engineering for hospital systems, and fund clinical validation studies across multiple subspecialties. Cortex reported pilots showing a 30% reduction in report turnaround times and higher detection rates for subtle fractures.

CEO Dr. Naveen Rao framed the product as workload augmentation: “Radiologists are overwhelmed by volume. CortexAssist helps them focus on complex cases while streamlining routine findings.” Commercial rollout is planned regionally with major health systems in late 2026.
