Signify Research explains key trends AI in medical imaging

Radiology artificial intelligence vendors are increasingly shifting their focus from standalone algorithms to enterprise-wide workflow solutions and broader healthcare integration, according to trends observed by Signify Research.

Umar Ahmed, an AI in medical imaging market analyst with Signify Research, said the radiology AI market has reached a stage where companies are pursuing very different strategies depending on their level of maturity and market traction. He spent several days speaking with vendors during the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) 2025 meeting in December and shared what he learned with Radiology Business.

“AI in radiology is in a different place depending on who you speak to,” Ahmed explained. “For some companies, they're still trying to find traction in their use cases. For other companies, they're looking to expand their portfolios.”

He said that contrast was clearly visible across the RSNA exhibit floor, where some vendors were still trying to establish initial adoption while others were focusing on global expansion.

"We're seeing vendors at RSNA going into 2026 with different strategic priorities and different focuses," he added.
