🌐 AIDOT’s ‘URO dot AI’ Gains Official Non-covered Status as an Innovative Medical Technology
🤝 Accelerating Commercial Adoption in Clinical Practice
AIDOT (CEO Jae-hoon Jeong) announced that its AI-powered urolithiasis diagnostic support solution, URO dot AI, has officially entered the non-reimbursable health insurance market following a notice revision by the Ministry of Health and Welfare.
Effective September 1 nationwide, medical staff can now officially prescribe and bill for diagnostic support utilizing URO dot AI when assessing patients suspected of having urolithiasis.
Traditional methods require visually reviewing hundreds of non-contrast CT cross-sections, risking delays or missed micro-stones under 4mm. AIDOT’s URO dot AI solves this by performing a 3-dimensional anatomical analysis of the urinary system, precisely pinpointing micro-stones under 4mm within 5 minutes. Clinical studies have demonstrated a high accuracy exceeding 96%.
This milestone removes previous barriers to hospital adoption caused by a lack of billing options, which is expected to accelerate implementation across urology clinics and university hospital emergency rooms. Building on this listing, AIDOT is also pursuing research to expand its diagnostics into an X-ray version through a regional project.
