About IHF Partnership

Qure.ai’s partnership with India Health Fund (IHF) has been instrumental in driving innovation in tuberculosis (TB) screening.

Securing the IHF grant in December 2019 marked the beginning of a transformative four-year journey (January 2020 - December 2023). Our collaborative efforts have focused on pioneering a point-of-care system capable of digitizing analog Chest X-ray films, alongside scaling up qXR, our advanced digital solution for TB screening.

This trailblazing project aspires to revolutionize TB screening workflows digitally and equip healthcare professionals with a mobile application, redefining TB detection methods. Furthermore, our joint endeavour includes dedicated support for paediatric TB interpretation in the crucial age bracket of 6-15 years.

This partnership embodies our commitment to advancing healthcare technology and making impactful strides in TB screening for communities across India.

“Being the only other doctor in a smalltown in UP, qXR and qTrack are of great help in identifying even asymptomatic patients in this TB burdened community. The solution is fast and convenient as the interface is very intuitive. We have also leveraged the automatic report feature of qTrack to provide X-ray reports to all patients. Qure.ai has been great for us!”
