Kheiron Medical Technologies
Transforming cancer diagnostics through the power of deep learning.
Giving patients a better fighting chance against cancer
At Kheiron, we create Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions that really make a difference. By helping radiologists detect cancer earlier, our next-generation technology can increase chances of survival and pave the way for less invasive treatments*. All while helping radiology departments run more efficiently and manage patient care more effectively.

We’re delighted to have made the front page of The New York Times
The extensive feature details our ground-breaking work with András Vadászy and Dr. Éva Ambrózay at MaMMa Klinika in Hungary where Mia® found 13% more cancers than doctors alone: “Advancements in A.I. are beginning to deliver breakthroughs in breast cancer screening by detecting the signs that doctors miss.”

Our first solution: Revolutionising mammography
Mia®, whose name comes from Mammography Intelligent Assessment, is our breakthrough AI platform for breast screening. Bringing together a suite of solutions, Mia empowers radiologists and screening services to deliver confident, accurate, timely results. Ultimately, Mia supports radiologists in making the most important breast screening decision — should this woman be called back for further testing or not?
Why breast screening?
With our first solution, we chose to focus specifically on how AI could improve breast screening programmes. Why? Because early detection is directly linked to better outcomes for women.
The American Cancer Society (ACS) found that the five-year survival rate for women receiving an early-stage (localised) breast cancer diagnosis is 99%*. When diagnosis occurs at the regional stage, survivorship falls to 86% – and then again to 28% at the distant stage**.
But breast screening is only the beginning. We’re currently looking ahead at how AI can revolutionise diagnostics for other types of cancer. Watch this space.

Tackling the radiology workforce crisis in the UK’s National Health Service
Across the globe, radiology departments are overworked and understaffed. The good news is, AI is already helping to solve this crisis for parts of the NHS.
