# A French startup built a radiology viewer from scratch with AI at its core. Moffitt Cancer Center is already using it.

**[The Next Web](https://daily.dev/sources/tnw)** · 2 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Paris-based Raidium has launched its AI-native radiology platform, Raidium Read, at Moffitt Cancer Center in the US. Built from scratch with AI at its core rather than bolted onto a legacy PACS viewer, the platform uses Curia — a proprietary foundation model trained on over 200 million CT and MRI slices — to automate RECIST tumor measurements across multiple time points. The system reduces inter-reader variability by a factor of three and requires no backend integration, enabling faster deployment. FDA 510(k) clearance is expected by end of 2026, with current use limited to clinical trials and research.

## Questions this post answers

### What is Raidium's Curia model and what does it do in radiology?

Curia is Raidium's proprietary foundation model trained on over 200 million CT and MRI slices from 150,000 exams. It performs organ-agnostic, automated RECIST measurements to track tumor response across multiple imaging time points, and Raidium says it cuts inter-reader variability by a factor of three compared to manual lesion tracking.

### Has Raidium's radiology platform received FDA clearance?

Not yet as of the launch at Moffitt Cancer Center. Raidium Read is currently available only for clinical trials and research use there, and FDA 510(k) clearance is expected before the end of 2026, after which broader clinical deployment could follow.

_Developers evaluating medical AI regulatory timelines can follow updates like this on daily.dev._

### Why did Raidium build its own PACS viewer instead of adding AI to an existing one?

Raidium's CEO Paul Herent argued standard PACS viewers have resisted evolution for twenty years, so the company built the viewer from scratch with the Curia model embedded rather than layering AI onto legacy software. This approach requires no backend integration, making deployment faster than traditional PACS installations at sites like Moffitt Cancer Center.
