Paige raises $15 million from Goldman Sachs to detect cancer with computer vision

Health care startup Paige has raised an additional $15 million from Goldman Sachs to help diagnose cancer using computer vision trained on clinical imaging data. The funding shows that while COVID-19 investments are getting a lot of attention, AI-related efforts to fight cancer are also moving forward. The idea is to use data sets related to treatment and genomics to train deep learning networks to detect breast, prostate, and other major cancers. Paige builds computational pathology products to help pathologists deliver more accurate diagnoses to cancer patients and allow patients and their care teams to make faster, more informed treatment decisions. New York-based Paige has raised over $95 million to date.
