RAD-AID International is a Bethesda-based nonprofit focused on expanding radiology services in under-resourced and medically underserved regions worldwide. The organization addresses a global imaging gap identified by the World Health Organization, where many people lack access to essential radiology services such as X-ray, ultrasound, and mammography. It pursues a multidisciplinary approach—economic development, health system assessment, technology innovation, clinical education, and hands-on training—to enhance radiology capacity and support critical health services, including maternal and women's health, HIV-related disease, TB, cancer, heart disease, and trauma care. Operating within the Hospitals and Health Care sector, RAD-AID aims to connect communities with sustainable imaging resources. Target beneficiaries are populations in low-resource settings that need improved imaging for diagnosis and treatment. The organization partners with other entities, and a notable recent development is a 2024 collaboration with iCAD to advance breast cancer detection using AI in underserved regions and LMICs.
