Supercharging the ECG: AI set to Revolutionize the Diagnostic Cardiology Market

DAIC

A burgeoning group of vendor-neutral, software-only AI-ECG platform companies has also emerged, including Cardiologs (acquired by Philips in 2021), Cardiomatics (Poland), and Accurkardia (US), whose algorithms can interpret ECG signals from 1-3 lead ambulatory devices up to a traditional 12-lead resting ECG. Active vendors in this space (i.e.,
