About Smart Soft Healthcare
Smart Soft Healthcare is a healthcare startup dedicated to transforming spine diagnostics and treatment through Artificial Intelligence (AI). Established in 2021 as a spin-off from SmartSoft, the company aims to deliver more effective and economical healthcare solutions.
Their primary product, CoLumbo, is an AI-powered software designed to assist in the interpretation of lumbar spine MRI scans. This deep learning algorithm is engineered to significantly reduce the time radiologists spend on patient examination reading and reporting, while simultaneously enhancing the accuracy of measurements and promoting standardization in spine MRI reporting. CoLumbo’s functionalities include feature segmentation, measurement, threshold-based labeling of out-of-range measurements, and the ability to export results into a written report. The software has received CE mark certification in Europe and FDA 510(K) and TGA clearance in the USA and Australia, confirming its approval for clinical use. The company’s team comprises international experts in radiology, software, project development, finance, and medicine, with additional consultation from radiologists, neurosurgeons, and MSK specialists across the EU and USA. Smart Soft Healthcare’s overarching goal is to become the leading AI solution for spine MRI interpretation globally, thereby alleviating the manual burden on radiologists and allowing them more capacity for patient care.
