The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Carestream Dental no pricing information published on the vendor website; Paige the FDA authorisation is confined to prostate core needle biopsies, on compatible scanners, viewed through FullFocus, as an adjunct only; every other tissue type and every grading claim is outside that authorisation in the United States.
  • They diverge on capability: Carestream Dental covers Dental imaging, Paige covers Paige Prostate Detect.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Carestream Dental

  • No pricing information published on the vendor website

Paige

  • The FDA authorisation is confined to prostate core needle biopsies, on compatible scanners, viewed through FullFocus, as an adjunct only; every other tissue type and every grading claim is outside that authorisation in the United States.
  • The algorithm is worthless without a digital pathology programme already running, and slide scanning, storage and workflow typically cost far more than the software licence.
  • Tempus acquired Paige in 2025, so the roadmap now competes for attention inside a genomics-led business, and the pathology-only buyer is no longer the primary customer.
  • Scanner compatibility is a hard constraint rather than a preference, and a laboratory with an unsupported scanner fleet cannot use the authorised indication at all.
  • Pricing is per case or per slide and unpublished, so a laboratory cannot model cost per reported case without entering a sales process.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Carestream Dental: What is Carestream's pricing model?

Carestream does not publish standard pricing for its dental imaging and medical solutions. Healthcare products from Carestream require direct contact with their sales team for custom quotes based on facility size, equipment needs, and support requirements.

Source
Paige: What exactly is FDA authorised?

Paige Prostate Detect, as an adjunct for identifying areas of interest on digitised prostate core needle biopsy slides, viewed through the Paige FullFocus viewer on a compatible scanner. Nothing else in the portfolio holds that authorisation in the United States.

Carestream Dental: How do I request a Carestream product demo or pricing quote?

Carestream provides contact options and a service request portal on their website. You can submit a service request or contact their sales team directly to discuss your healthcare imaging needs and receive a personalized quote.

Source
Paige: Is the European position broader?

Yes. The Paige Prostate suite including grading and quantification received IVDR certification in 2025, which covers more than the United States authorisation.

Paige: What did the pivotal study measure?

Pathologist cancer detection on individual slide images improved, with reported reductions in false negative and false positive readings. It measured pathologist performance with the tool, not standalone algorithm accuracy.

Paige: Who owns Paige now?

Tempus AI acquired Paige in 2025. Products remain branded Paige.
