Veterinary radiology AI software is a type of veterinary software. Basically, it’s reporting software, and the reports’ UX can vary significantly. The veterinary radiology market is mature, highly competitive, and will grow at a moderate 9.2% CAGR. It includes both devices and software, however, the software segment is at the peak of investor interest thanks to AI integration into image recognition workflows, which creates opportunities for startup entrepreneurs.
The core of veterinary radiology AI software lies in the embedded AI. Veterinary radiology AI software may be based on several types of AI techniques and models tailored to medical imaging. The specific AI types depend on the software's objectives and may include convolutional neural networks, deep learning, computer vision, natural language processing, reinforcement learning, ensemble models, and explainable AI.
The core of Veterinary Radiology AI Software consists of classifiers (abdominal, thoracic, etc.) - AI algorithms capable of assigning labels (categories) to input data based on patterns learned during training. These classifiers focus on conditions that signal complex abnormalities. They assist in identifying signs that may indicate negative processes and changes commonly linked to systemic or localized diseases, chronic diseases, obstruction, dysfunction, motility issues, or other serious conditions. Based on this information, veterinarians can quickly assess disease severity, prioritize treatment options, and determine the need for referral to specialty care or further diagnostics. Classifiers should be regularly fine-tuned. Often, such startups hire board-certified veterinary radiologists to contribute to building and validating such classifiers.
A patient's outcome could depend on a rapid report and second opinion. Veterinary radiology AI complements the urgent work of radiologists in animal hospitals, especially for clinics that lack a dedicated expert in veterinary radiology. SignalRAY, one vendor of veterinary radiology AI software, published peer-reviewed research in which they tried to understand whether the radiological interpretations made by veterinary radiologists are better or worse than those made by AI software. The key finding is that AI performs “almost as well as the highest-performing radiologist”. However, it does not provide a complete replacement. A similar report can be found from another vendor, Vetology. AI can also be used to integrate medical histories during the radiological interpretation and compare radiographic results.
The first generation of veterinary radiology AI software is already commercially available. In fact, as a product, they provide board-certified expertise enhanced by AI-powered insights, rather than rely solely on machine interpretations.
Veterinary radiology AI platforms can be integrated with X-ray, ultrasound, CT, and MRI machines, as well as with veterinary practice management systems to submit studies automatically. They can also receive radiographs through direct uploads. AI automatically scans every X-ray and delivers near-instant assessments of critical conditions.
If any issues are detected (obstruction, heart failure, or GDV), they are flagged immediately for the care team to prioritize urgent cases.
The key value for veterinarians — the buyers of this software—is that the report is ready within 5 – 10 minutes during a patient's visit. After generation, the reports are added to the platform, emailed to the necessary email addresses, and synced with a specific veterinary clinic's PMS.
