Aidence develops AI radiology software for lung cancer detection, building CE-marked and FDA-cleared deep learning algorithms that analyse CT scan images to identify and characterise pulmonary nodules requiring clinical follow-up. The Amsterdam company tools assist radiologists in national lung cancer screening programmes and in routine clinical CT reading, providing AI-generated nodule measurements, growth tracking, and malignancy risk scores that reduce reader variability and improve early detection rates.\n\nThe company raised approximately $20 million in venture funding and has deployed its Veye Chest algorithm across multiple European radiology networks and hospital systems participating in national lung cancer screening initiatives. Aidence received CE marking for its software as a medical device and has published clinical validation studies demonstrating performance that is non-inferior to specialist radiologist reads on lung nodule detection tasks.\n\nAidence competes in the AI radiology market alongside Annalise AI, Enlitic, Behold.ai, and Lunit, all of which target chest X-ray and CT reading assistance. The lung cancer screening market has expanded significantly as multiple European countries and the United States have implemented or planned national screening programmes for high-risk smokers, creating a growing workflow automation opportunity for AI lung nodule detection tools. The company was acquired by Coreline Soft, a South Korean medical AI company, as part of a broader consolidation in the AI radiology market.
