Rad AI Expands Radiology AI Deal With Yale New Haven

By Healthcare Technology News ·

California-based Rad AI is broadening its relationship with Yale New Haven Health System (YNHHS), extending the deployment of its generative AI radiology reporting technology across the Connecticut system's imaging network, MobiHealthNews reported exclusively.

The expansion matters because of who is doing it. "Yale was our first big academic site," Dr. Elizabeth Bergey, a radiologist and chief clinical officer at Rad AI, told MobiHealthNews. Academic medical centers tend to vet new technology rigorously, so a deeper commitment from a flagship system signals confidence in tools that automate the drafting and documentation of imaging reports.

Rad AI's software aims to reduce the repetitive dictation work that drives radiologist burnout and slows turnaround. The move fits a broader industry shift: radiology has become one of the fastest-adopting specialties for generative AI, as health systems look to ease workforce strain and speed reporting without adding headcount. The expansion turns an early pilot relationship into a system-wide bet.
