French mammography AI with FDA clearances for 2D and tomosynthesis breast screening

The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Meditech on-premise deployment model requires significant infrastructure investment and ongoing IT maintenance; Therapixel european and American regulatory positions were established under different regimes, and under the EU Medical Device Regulation this class of diagnostic AI faces a higher classification and notified body scrutiny, so European buyers must verify the current MDR certificate and expiry rather than relying on a legacy CE reference.
  • They diverge on capability: Meditech covers Electronic Health Records, Therapixel covers MammoScreen 2D.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Therapixel

  • A European breast screening programme running mandatory double reading that wants to evaluate AI as a concurrent or second reader within what national guidance permitsnot Meditech
  • An American breast centre that has moved to tomosynthesis and needs reading support on DBT specifically, which Therapixel holds a clearance fornot Meditech
  • A screening service wanting a graded suspicion score rather than a binary flag so readers can calibrate their own thresholdnot Meditech
  • A radiology group evaluating multiple mammography AI vendors head to head on their own historic case set before committingnot Meditech

Where each one falls short

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

Meditech

  • On-premise deployment model requires significant infrastructure investment and ongoing IT maintenance
  • Complex implementation and customization process that can take months and require extensive staff training
  • User interface noted as outdated compared to modern cloud-native EHR competitors

Therapixel

  • European and American regulatory positions were established under different regimes, and under the EU Medical Device Regulation this class of diagnostic AI faces a higher classification and notified body scrutiny, so European buyers must verify the current MDR certificate and expiry rather than relying on a legacy CE reference.
  • MammoScreen does mammography only, so a hospital wanting AI across head CT, chest and breast needs several vendors and several PACS integrations, or an orchestration layer bought from someone else.
  • Therapixel is a small French company competing against Hologic and iCAD, which have incumbency inside the mammography reading workstation, so integration into an American breast centre is more work than it is for the workstation vendor own AI.
  • Detection performance is sensitive to the mammography unit vendor and acquisition protocol, so published results do not transfer between estates and each site needs local validation it must fund itself.
  • Whether AI can substitute for one of two human readers is a national workforce and liability question, not a product capability, so the labour saving that justifies the purchase in one country is not permitted in another.

Meditech: What are the main clinical features included in Meditech EHR?

Meditech provides comprehensive clinical charting, access to patient vitals, medication history, lab results, diagnostic imaging, virtual care capabilities, and e-prescribing for healthcare professionals.

Therapixel: Is MammoScreen FDA cleared?

Yes. It holds 510(k) clearance K192854 for two dimensional mammography from July 2020, a November 2021 clearance for digital breast tomosynthesis, and two further clearances in October 2024 for later versions.

Meditech: Does Meditech support telehealth and virtual appointments?

Yes, Meditech offers Virtual Care and Virtual On Demand Care solutions allowing physicians to conduct video visits and deliver remote health services.

Source
Therapixel: Is it CE marked?

Yes, but European buyers should ask specifically for the current certificate under the Medical Device Regulation and its expiry date, because this class of diagnostic AI moved to a higher classification under MDR.

Meditech: Is Meditech HIPAA compliant?

Yes, Meditech EHR is HIPAA compliant, and both inpatient and ambulatory products are ONC-certified with FHIR-based interoperability standards.

Source
Therapixel: What does the one to ten score mean?

It is a graded suspicion score per finding and per study, designed to be integrated alongside a radiologist BI-RADS assessment rather than treated as a positive or negative result.

Therapixel: Does it cover anything besides mammography?

No. It is a mammography product only, including tomosynthesis. Other body regions need a different vendor.
