The business has created Rayvolve, an AI diagnostic tool that can recognise a variety of anomalies in conventional radiography. Rayvolve reduces the chance of diagnostic errors, increases the efficiency of examination interpretations, and saves time for radiologists and emergency physicians.

The first artificial intelligence programme to ever acquire CE marking for X-ray fracture diagnosis was Rayvolve in 2019. It then received FDA approval in 2022 and has been used in more than 1,000 medical facilities in 40 different nations ever then.

CEO of AZmed, Julien Vidal, shared: "We are thrilled to have obtained this funding to advance AZmed to the forefront of the medical imaging industry. As the number of physicians has remained constant while the volume of medical images has increased, it is beyond dispute that every medical image must be correlated with a diagnosis of AI. Hence, AZmed is determined to pioneer AI solutions in radiology to efficiently support the growing flow of images and improve the patient care pathway."

Arnaud Decrulle from Maison Worms said: "The AZmed team has demonstrated unmatched commitment and creativity in tackling the pressing issues that affect healthcare practitioners. With this investment, AZmed will be in a strong position to enhance the care that is provided to patients. We share the company's mission and are excited to be a part of its journey to transform healthcare."
