Qscan Group, one of Australia’s largest outpatient imaging networks, has deployed CARPL.ai, the world’s largest AI marketplace for radiology, directly within its Intelerad PACS environment to power its next generation of AI-assisted reporting workflows.
The deployment enables Qscan’s radiologists to access and validate AI algorithms, including tools supporting Australia’s National Lung Cancer Screening Program, from within their existing PACS interface, without disrupting workflows.
It is one of the first large-scale, fully embedded AI marketplace integrations in the Australian imaging landscape.
The CARPL Intelerad partnership ensures AI results appear natively within the radiologist’s viewer turning AI insights into “actionable reporting support”.
PACS integration
“Qscan is extremely impressed by CARPL’s AI platform. Their unique approach that allows us to validate AI algorithms before using them through a single customised viewer that is deeply integrated with PACS is very valuable,” said Qscan Chief Executive Officer Gary Shepherd.
“We are currently using CARPL for the Lung Cancer Screening program and are seeing exponentially better radiologist productivity and outcomes,” he said.
The partnership builds on Qscan’s decade-long collaboration with Intelerad, which provides enterprise imaging software to health systems globally.
“This three-way collaboration ensures Qscan’s radiologists can access best-in-class AI tools directly within the Intelerad environment,” said Cemil Browne, VP & GM, Oceania, Intelerad. “The result is faster, more accurate diagnoses and smoother patient throughput.”
Workflow milestone
CARPL.ai says it represents another milestone in scaling workflow-integrated AI adoption.
“The National Lung Cancer Screening Program has been a great opportunity to help Australian radiologists with cutting-edge AI models,” said CARPL.ai CEO Vidur Mahajan. “Our teams co-designed the solution with Qscan’s RadX group and delivered it fully compliant with NLCSLP guidelines in just three months.”
CARPL.ai’s platform offers more than 200 AI models across multiple clinical use cases, enabling hospitals and imaging groups to test, benchmark and deploy tools through a single interface integrated with existing PACS/RIS systems.
