Strategy and Product
Q1. | Why is iCAD being acquiring by RadNet, and how does this acquisition align with iCAD’s long-term vision and strategy? |
iCAD joining with DeepHealth, a subsidiary of RadNet, will enable iCAD to more quickly achieve our mission of creating a world where cancer can’t hide. By combining our technologies, we aim to create a comprehensive portfolio of breast screening AI, integrated viewing and reporting tools, and, in the future, tools like personalized risk assessment. The acquisition aims to enable access to scale, boost commercial and R&D capabilities, and reinforce the two organization's position as a digital health leader in breast health.
Q2. | How will iCAD’s products be integrated into DeepHealth’s breast portfolio? And what solution will you offer for 3D and 2D mammography? |
DeepHealth is committed to increased investment in R&D and the integration of iCAD’s talent and technology. The intention is to complement DeepHealth’s SmartMammo™ solution suite with iCAD’s complementary products, enhancing DeepHealth’s portfolio in AI-powered cancer detection and screening. Together, we believe we’re positioned to expand access to AI tools and deliver enhanced differentiating value to healthcare providers and their patients While the exact integration plan won’t be available until after close and the initial integration phases are completed, the acquisition aims to create a comprehensive, integrated portfolio of screening and diagnostic AI, personalized risk assessment, and integrated viewing and reporting tools. We will keep you informed as new information becomes available.
Q3. | Until the integration occurs, will DeepHealth continue to provide iCAD’s current products as standalone? |
Yes. Until the integration is completed, there will be no changes to the current product roadmaps or operations. iCAD’s products will continue to be available and supported as standalone solutions.
Impact on Customers and Patients
Q4. | How will this acquisition benefit iCAD’s existing customers? |
The acquisition aims to combine iCAD’s and DeepHealth’s product, engineering, and commercial capabilities, allowing for a more comprehensive offering and improving customer access to integrated AI solutions. iCAD customers are expected to benefit from access to a broader suite of AI, viewing and reporting, and end-to-end screening solutions.
Q5. | How will the acquisition improve patient clinical outcomes, and when will we see change for the practitioners? |
By integrating iCAD’s ProFound Breast Health Suite solutions with DeepHealth’s SmartMammo™, the combined offering aims to enhance cancer detection, improve workflow efficiency, and reduce recalls. We expect these benefits will be seen progressively post-integration, starting later in 2025.

Different service providers have created augmented screening offerings for their patients. These solutions vary per provider.
