DR. CADX<br />

Country: ZIMBABWE<br />

www.drcadx.com<br />

Dr. CADx is one of the newest companies on our list, having been<br />

formed only in August 2016, but the company’s technology is very<br />

exciting. The team at Dr CADx is developing computer-aided medical<br />

diagnostic tools that will improve medical diagnoses even in remote<br />

areas. The platform is particularly good at radiology diagnoses without<br />

the aid of radiologists – a prototype achieved 82% accuracy in a<br />

test of chest X-rays of people with tuberculosis and lung cancer.<br />
