VANCOUVER, BC, May 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The concept of AI in healthcare is no longer a novelty, experts are acknowledging AI algorithms, detection, and drug discovery are becoming indispensable tools. As medical errors continue to harm patients, healthcare experts are turning to AI to improve mistakes in medications, such as prescribing the wrong drug or wrong dose. As real-world deployment gains momentum, a number of tech and biotech firms are already translating AI healthcare innovation into clinical practice. Notable recent activity includes initiatives from Avant Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: AVAI), Tempus AI, Inc. (NASDAQ: TEM), BioXcel Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: BTAI), Healwell AI Inc. (TSX: AIDX) (OTCPK: HWAIF), and WELL Health Technologies Corp. (TSX: WELL) (OTCQX: WHTCF).

Cathie Wood of Ark Invest recently highlighted new research from Mass General Brigham, where AI models were able to predict cancer survival outcomes based on facial images—an example she cited as evidence that healthcare could become AI's most transformative use case. Industry forecasts support that trajectory, with Statista estimating that the global AI healthcare market will grow from roughly $11 billion today to $188 billion by 2030, reflecting a compound annual growth rate of 37%.

Avant Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: AVAI), in collaboration with Ainnova Tech, is quietly building a foothold in the emerging field of predictive diagnostics. Its Vision AI platform is designed to identify disease markers at the earliest possible stage—sometimes before outward symptoms emerge—by leveraging artificial intelligence in combination with clinical data. In its latest move, Avant disclosed plans to integrate a patented technology that targets early-stage dementia detection, signaling an intentional broadening of its preventive care focus.

The proposed tool uses proprietary algorithms alongside hardware and a five-minute blood test to flag dementia-associated risk factors well in advance of standard clinical methods. Avant is weighing both licensing and acquisition options for the technology, with global rights under consideration. Either route would strengthen the company's position in the neurodegenerative care space and complement its broader push into chronic illness screening. By expanding its platform's range without departing from its central thesis—early, accessible intervention—Avant is quietly aiming to reshape how and when critical conditions are first detected.

"This accessible, fast, and scalable solution is designed to support early intervention and targeted treatment strategies, with the ambition of reaching millions of patients globally in the coming years," said Vinicio Vargas, CEO at Ainnova and member of the Board of Directors of the joint venture company, Ai-nova Acquisition Corp. (AAC). "Adding the early detection of dementia that this patented technology presents us would go a long way to making us a leader in the industry of early disease detection."

Vision AI is designed as a non-invasive platform that brings together retinal imaging, blood pressure readings, and routine lab data to generate personalized health assessments. Its core function is to estimate risk for common but often underdiagnosed chronic conditions—helping clinicians make earlier, more informed decisions with minimal burden on the patient.

By analyzing just two retinal images and a short set of vital signs, the system runs four proprietary algorithms trained on more than 2.3 million clinical records. These algorithms evaluate indicators linked to cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, liver fibrosis, and chronic kidney disease. The technology's lightweight, modular design is intended to keep costs low while enabling use across a wide range of clinical settings—including those with limited access to specialist care.

"Our purpose is to create the future of early disease detection in an accessible way, so that patients can get a preventive check-up anywhere, at a low cost, and easily," said Vargas in a previous statement. "We want to prevent patients with risk factors from developing other diseases that could have been avoided before they became a real problem. To this end, we are seeking to integrate new technologies into our portfolio within a single platform, both through our R&D efforts and through potential exclusive licenses or acquisitions."

Alongside its dementia screening initiative, Avant is progressing toward a full acquisition of Ainnova Tech, its current development partner. The two firms are already operating under a shared entity—Ai-nova Acquisition Corp. (AAC)—and a completed merger would align leadership, simplify corporate structure, and create a more efficient framework for navigating regulatory milestones. A key FDA pre-submission meeting is scheduled for July, making the timing of this integration especially relevant. Internally, management views the consolidation as a strategic lever to accelerate U.S. market access while continuing to support ongoing deployments in international pilot programs.

"This milestone reflects our two-tiered strategy, rapid deployment in low-regulation markets where Vision AI operates as a screening tool, and simultaneous progress toward FDA clearance for the U.S. market," said Vargas. "Entering the U.S. will unlock significant commercial potential, and early engagement with regulators ensures we do so with speed, credibility, and a validated product."

While many AI-driven diagnostic platforms remain confined to controlled pilots or lab settings, Avant's Vision AI is already operating in live clinical environments across Latin America. Active deployments in Chile, Mexico, and Brazil are generating real-world data on safety, performance, and clinical usability—insights that are feeding directly into iterative improvements across the platform.

Longer term, the company aims to unify a growing range of diagnostic tools under a single, streamlined system capable of delivering early-stage health insights from basic, non-invasive inputs. Backed by global platform rights through AAC, and supported by detection sensitivity levels reported above 90% in research cited by the NIH, Vision AI is quietly shaping into a scalable solution with potential utility across both developed and underserved healthcare systems.

With dementia screening now entering the pipeline and additional modules under evaluation, Avant appears to be transitioning from early validation to broader execution—laying the groundwork for international expansion and a future U.S. launch.

VANCOUVER, BC, May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- USA News Group News Commentary – In a clear sign of growing confidence in artificial intelligence (AI) for healthcare, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has now fully adopted internal AI use, following the successful trial of a generative AI tool designed to streamline scientific review. The system, which helps FDA experts reduce time spent on repetitive tasks, marks a pivotal shift toward automation within regulatory processes. Analysts say this shift further confirms AI's growing role in the future of medicine, with MarketsandMarkets projecting the AI healthcare sector to climb at a 38.6% CAGR, reaching over US$110.61 billion by 2030. As the FDA leans into AI for its own operations, attention is turning to public companies advancing their own healthcare AI platforms—among them Avant Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: AVAI), RadNet, Inc. (NASDAQ: RDNT), iCad, Inc. (NASDAQ: ICAD), Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ: MSFT), and HEALWELL AI Inc. (TSX: AIDX) (OTCQX: HWAIF).

Major funding continues to pour into the AI healthcare sector, highlighted by Persivia's recent $107 million raise to scale its AI-powered platform. Looking ahead, analysts project that by 2035, artificial intelligence could inject an additional $461 billion into a global healthcare system already set to exceed $2.26 trillion.

Avant Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: AVAI) is deepening its footprint in AI-driven healthcare through a proposed acquisition of its joint venture partner Ainnova Tech. The two companies, already working together under Ai-nova Acquisition Corp.

The move is expected to streamline regulatory coordination, simplify clinical trial execution, and enhance commercial alignment as they prepare for U.S. market entry.

"We believe bringing the two companies together will offer tremendous value for shareholders," said Vinicio Vargas, CEO at Ainnova and a member of the Board of Directors of Ai-nova Acquisition Corp. "It will simplify the process of advancing our technology to market, and it will deliver value to our customers and partners as we promote our technology portfolio globally."

Operating through AAC, the companies hold global rights to Vision AI, a non-invasive clinical screening platform that integrates retinal imaging, vital sign capture, and proprietary algorithms to detect early signs of diabetic retinopathy, cardiovascular disease, liver fibrosis, kidney disease, and type 2 diabetes. According to NIH-cited research, AI tools like Vision AI have demonstrated over 90% sensitivity in detecting conditions before symptoms emerge.

"This milestone reflects our two-tiered strategy, rapid deployment in low-regulation markets where Vision AI operates as a screening tool, and simultaneous progress toward FDA clearance for the U.S. market," said Vargas. "Entering the U.S. will unlock significant commercial potential, and early engagement with regulators ensures we do so with speed, credibility, and a validated product."

While many early-stage healthcare AI companies remain pre-commercial, Vision AI is already active in pilot programs across Latin America, including Chile, Mexico, and Brazil. These deployments are generating real-world data and validating the platform in everyday clinical settings.

To support the next phase of growth, AAC recently integrated four new diagnostic algorithms trained on more than 2.3 million clinical cases, boosting the platform's utility across a broader range of chronic conditions. With momentum building across regulatory, commercial, and clinical fronts, Avant appears well-positioned for the next leg of its journey.
