Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) start-up Infervision has raised $18 million in new financing, according to an article from China Money Network.

The Series B financing round was led by Chinese venture capital firm Qiming Venture Partners and included participation from Sequoia Capital China and Genesis Capital, China Money Network reported. The investment follows a $7 million series A round in January led by Sequoia Capital China and a $2 million angel round in 2016 from Innoangel Fund and Powercloud Venture Capital.

Infervision plans to use the new funds to support the commercialization and clinical trial of its products, as well as expand its business into overseas markets, according to the article. To date, more than 10 hospitals have implemented the company's AI software.

Predictions and Grad-CAMs of ViT-based models on sample PET/CT, PET, and CT test images from the “positive” class. ViT was fine-tuned using training data for each modality. The bounding boxes depicted in the figure indicate malignant lesions. The top row of the Grad-CAMs shows important areas for “positive” predictions, and the bottom row shows areas for “negative” predictions. Image courtesy of Scientific Reports.

ChatGPT powered by GPT-4 and using DALL-E−3 was asked to generate an image for teaching purposes that demonstrated: a nuclear medicine bone scan with skeletal metastases (top left); coronary artery disease (top right); an F-18 FDG-PET scan of the brain with Alzheimer's disease (bottom left); and an x-ray showing a fracture (bottom right). These are misleading for educational purposes and for patients who may be searching for information. Image and caption courtesy of Radiography.

Can AI help chest DDR achieve clinical adoption?
By Will Morton
Chest dynamic digital radiography (DDR) may have received a boost toward clinical use in patients with lung disorders, with researchers developing AI to perform time-consuming analysis involved in the technology.

(a) Raw example of a dynamic digital radiograph. (b) Contrast equalization using contrast-limited adaptive equalization shows improved anatomical visualization. (c) Training data is generated through manually labeling using SLEAP’s graphical user interface. (d-e) Neural network detection schematic. For each quadrant a series of two networks were used. The first identifies the quadrant center, the second using input of the first, then identifies individual anatomical landmarks within a quadrant. (d) Four neural networks were trained, each with the objective of identifying a chest quadrant centroid. The four separate quadrants are visualized as colored boxes (right upper quadrant, green; right lower quadrant, blue; left upper quadrant, red; left lower quadrant, yellow). (e) Serial centroid then anatomical identification. Two quadrant examples showing confidence maps of trained neural networks identifying quadrant centroids (left) and then anatomical confidence maps (right).
