Blackford to Integrate DeepTek AI-Based Chest X-ray Analysis Solution on Its Platform

Blackford and DeepTek announced a commercial partnership to bring CXR Analyzer to healthcare professionals via the Blackford Platform. Blackford’s platform offers healthcare providers access to a comprehensive portfolio of over 140 AI-driven solutions, all designed to enhance clinical accuracy, streamline workflows, and elevate patient outcomes. Integrating DeepTek’s advanced chest X-ray analysis technology into the Blackford platform further empowers healthcare providers with powerful tools to support more accurate and efficient detection on chest X-rays. 

“We are delighted to partner with DeepTek and integrate their innovative chest analysis solutions into the Blackford AI portfolio,” says Ben Panter, Founder and CEO of Blackford. “This collaboration allows us to enhance our support for chest X-ray analysis, advancing our mission to drive efficiency across healthcare and improve patient health globally.” 

DeepTek CXR Analyzer is an FDA-cleared CADe software designed to support radiologists in detecting potential abnormalities in chest X-rays. The tool analyses the entire lung, pleura, and cardiac regions, using AI to pinpoint suspicious areas with precision. It integrates seamlessly with existing PACS, operating in the background (either on-premise or cloud-based) without interrupting current workflows. 

The AI engine quickly distinguishes suspicious from non-suspicious cases, sending the results back to PACS as secondary captures. Key findings are highlighted with color-coded bounding boxes, enabling efficient and accurate interpretation by radiologists.

“We’re pleased to bring DeepTek CXR Analyzer to Blackford’s trusted AI platform, advancing our shared mission to deliver precise, rapid chest X-ray insights that enhance diagnostic efficiency and patient outcomes. Blackford’s expertise and reach aligns with our vision of harnessing AI to deliver precise, timely chest X-ray insights to healthcare providers worldwide. This collaboration accelerates our shared goal of enhancing diagnostic efficiency and improving patient outcomes in a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape” quoted Dr Amit Kharat, Co-founder and CEO of DeepTek.ai.
