Aignostics Launches HETA Clinical AI for Pathology Workflow
Aignostics, a Berlin-based AI company, announced the launch of HETA Clinical, a new family of pan-cancer AI products designed to accelerate pathology workflows and reduce failed molecular tests. The first four products—HETA Quality Control, HETA Tumor Detection, HETA Mitoses, and HETA Tumor Cellularity—automate assessments such as slide quality, tumor presence, mitotic count, and tumor cellularity on H&E whole-slide images. These tasks are traditionally performed visually, which is time-consuming and prone to inter-reader variability. Pathologists at leading academic medical centers estimate that 10-20% of molecular tests fail due to insufficient tumor tissue, leading to repeat biopsies and delays. HETA Clinical helps labs prioritize cases, reduce turnaround times, and ensure adequate tumor content before testing. All products are based on HETA, Aignostics' pan-cancer tissue analysis platform, which has demonstrated cell classification performance at or exceeding expert pathologists. Aignostics also announced early access to PathoSearch, a visual search engine for pathology cases. HETA Clinical will integrate with image management systems like Techcyte Fusion®AP.
Leeds AI Startup adsilico Raises £10M for Virtual Medical Device Testing
adsilico, a University of Leeds spinout, has raised £10 million in a Series A funding round. The investment was led by PXN Ventures, with participation from existing investors Northern Gritstone and Parkwalk. Founded in 2024, adsilico develops AI-powered simulation technology that creates virtual patient populations to assess medical device performance. Their platform, Virtual Chimera, uses generative AI to create virtual hearts and blood vessels from anonymized clinical scans, combined with physics-based simulations. This allows medical device manufacturers to evaluate device performance across diverse patient demographics, aiding in development decisions such as device sizing, risk identification, and clinical trial strategy. The new funds will support expansion into neurovascular devices and increase the workforce. adsilico has already completed projects with heart valve and neurovascular device manufacturers.
