AGFA HealthCare Announces Partnership with CARPL.ai

AGFA HealthCare is integrating CARPL.ai into AGFA HealthCare Enterprise Imaging, expanding its RUBEE portfolio so customers can access CARPL’s marketplace of 140 AI applications, testing, deployment and monitoring tools, as a pre-integrated offering. 

Adopting AI at scale presents significant challenges for care providers, primarily due to a fragmented ecosystem where niche use cases make AI solutions difficult to access, assess, and integrate seamlessly. A unified platform approach offers the key to overcoming these barriers, consolidating diverse clinical use cases and a wide array of AI algorithms in one centralized solution. By providing care providers with streamlined access and integration capabilities, the CARPL platform helps unlock exponential value, enabling healthcare providers to harness the full potential of AI across multiple clinical domains and drive transformative improvements in patient care.

According to AGFA, RUBEE for AI powered by CARPL Platform is a framework for delivering best of breed AI. Its ability to automate tasks, enhance visualization, and simplify workflows means clinicians spend less time navigating systems and more time focusing on their patients. By integrating AI into the tools teams already use, RUBEE helps healthcare organizations unlock the true value of their AI investments—faster diagnoses, more efficient workflows, and improved delivery of care — all without disruption to their current operations.

RUBEE AI powered by CARPL Platform brings these two worlds together allowing radiologists to leverage the encapsulated value of the entire ecosystem driving clinical, operational and financial goals for patients and their care providers.

AGFA HealthCare Chief Medical Officer and Global Director of AI, Dr Anjum Ahmed, says, “When healthcare providers invest, or plan to invest in artificial intelligence, the big question is often, ‘How do we actually use this with our current systems without overhauling everything?’ That’s where AGFA HealthCare’s RUBEE for AI shines. Instead of adding complexity, RUBEE seamlessly integrates advanced AI capabilities directly into providers’ existing Enterprise Imaging ecosystem provided by AGFA HealthCare. It’s designed to work with the tools they already trust, bringing powerful AI-driven insights right into their everyday workflow—without the headaches of extra steps or new systems. RUBEE AI powered by CARPL Platform enables a marketplace ecosystem that helps customers scale up and expand based on their clinical requirements. Besides the marketplace, AGFA HealthCare customers have the flexibility and option to benefit from RUBEE AI Packages and RUBEE Integrations depending on their unique AI requirements or choice of AI applications.”

Vidur Mahajan, CEO for CARPL.ai adds, “Being the first and only FDA cleared AI marketplace, CARPL envisions becoming the safest and most compliant way for AI to deploy clinical AI. Our FDA clearance opens the door for widespread adoption of AI solutions through a platform approach which simplifies the process of selection, implementation, and procurement of AI by health systems. Partnering with AGFA HealthCare is a key step in our journey towards democratizing access to AI for radiologists. Having the entire AI ecosystem at their fingertips, along with the ability to validate and monitor these AI applications, will allow radiologists to exponentially improve clinical as well as operational care for their patients.”
