About TaiHao Medical
TaiHao Medical is an artificial intelligence (AI) company specializing in advanced medical imaging software designed to enhance diagnostic accuracy and efficiency for healthcare professionals. Since its establishment in 2013, the company has focused on developing AI-powered solutions that assist physicians and radiologists in interpreting medical images, particularly from ultrasound and low-dose CT (LDCT) scans. Their core offerings, such as the BR-ABVS Viewer, BR-USCAD, and BR-FHUS Smart System, are primarily geared towards breast cancer screening and diagnosis, addressing the increasing workload and the need for standardized, high-quality image interpretation.
TaiHao Medical’s technology integrates image analysis, automatic detection, and auxiliary diagnosis functionalities, aiming to reduce diagnostic time and improve diagnostic accuracy. Their products have received significant regulatory clearances, including 510(k) FDA clearance in the US, Japan’s first medical material license for breast ultrasound AI-assisted screening in 2020, and subsequent US FDA AI license for breast ultrasound lesion detection and diagnosis in 2021. The company also holds medical product licenses in Taiwan, the European Union (CE), South Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, and Vietnam, demonstrating a strong global presence and commitment to rigorous quality standards, as evidenced by their ISO 13485 certification.
Beyond breast imaging, TaiHao Medical is expanding its focus to include AI solutions for lung nodule detection and diagnosis with products like Ti-LUNG™ Decision Support, further broadening its impact on early cancer detection. The company collaborates with major medical centers and academic research institutions to continuously refine its AI technology, aiming to provide comprehensive medical information platforms that streamline workflows, reduce the burden on medical personnel, and ultimately improve patient care and outcomes.

What Physicians Need to Know
TaiHao Medical's solutions are designed to significantly reduce physician workload and combat burnout by automating detection and report generation, allowing more focus on patient care. Physicians can expect improved diagnostic confidence and reduced missed detection rates, as the AI acts as an 'extra specialist' providing real-time alerts and assistance, particularly beneficial for less experienced radiologists. The standardization of handheld ultrasound scanning processes helps ensure consistent image quality and increases scanning capacity, lessening the reliance on extensive individual experience. Furthermore, the rapid generation of structured reports, including BI-RADS and Lung-RADS classifications, streamlines the reporting workflow. For lung screenings, the integrated CAC module offers early cardiovascular risk assessment from a single CT scan, maximizing diagnostic value without additional radiation. TaiHao's AI models are built on pathological cases and clinical tests, ensuring high accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity, backed by clinical trials in the US, Japan, and Taiwan.
TaiHao Medical's software is designed for compatibility with existing medical imaging infrastructure. Their products receive images in DICOM format from Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS), radiology information systems, or directly from CT scanners. The BR-FHUS Navigation and Viewer are standalone software devices installed on Windows-based computers. BU-CAD can also function as an image viewer for multi-modality digital images, including ultrasound and mammography. TaiHao also offers professional system integration services to upgrade existing systems and platforms with their AI technology.
