RetinAI and FVS Announce CE-MDR Certification for Co-developed AI-based Diabetic Retinopathy Screening Algorithm, LuxIA®
BERN, Switzerland and MADRID, April 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RetinAI US Inc. (RetinAI) and Fundación Ver Salud (FVS) are pleased to jointly announce that LuxIA®, their co-developed innovative AI algorithm for Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) screening, has successfully received CE-MDR certification as a Class IIb medical device under the European Union Medical Device Regulation (EU MDR 2017/745). The certification was granted through Ikerian AG, RetinAI's parent company.
LuxIA is designed to screen adult diabetic patients for more-than-mild diabetic retinopathy (mtmDR). This indication for use provides critical support for ophthalmologists, general practitioners and trained healthcare professionals across the European Union to achieve an earlier diagnosis of mtmDR, a vision-threatening eye disease. This new certification demonstrates the strong collaboration between FVS and RetinAI, emphasizing both entities' commitment to deliver AI-driven tools that meet stringent regulatory standards and significantly enhance patient management and clinical outcomes.
The device is indicated for processing digital 45-degree colour fundus images from NW200, NW400 or equivalent Topcon cameras, ensuring seamless placement into existing clinical workflows. Together with RetinAI's existing portfolio of AI-based OCT analysis solutions, LuxIA complements a comprehensive suite of clinically validated, CE-certified AI modules focused on ophthalmology.
Dr. Carlos Ciller, CEO and co-founder of RetinAI, commented: 'Receiving CE-MDR certification for LuxIA underscores our shared commitment with FVS to advance leading-edge ophthalmic care to patients through reliable and impactful AI technology. This milestone is pivotal, enabling healthcare providers to improve patient management and outcomes for diabetic retinopathy across Europe, reinforcing our joint mission of transforming vision care through innovation.'
Dr. Juan Donate, MD, President of Fundación Ver Salud stated: 'We are excited about the newly received certification and look forward to the significant impact LuxIA will have in the European ophthalmology market. AI-driven screening solutions are critical to improving patient care, and we anticipate LuxIA will play a central role in achieving this.'

Edupoint Synergy Wins 'SIS Innovation of the Year' in 7th Annual EdTech Breakthrough Awards Program
Prestigious International Awards Program Recognizes Outstanding Educational Technology Products and Companies MESA, Ariz., June 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Edupoint® Educational Systems, creator of the industry-leading Synergy® Education Platform, today announced that Synergy has been selected as the winner of the "SIS Innovation of the Year" award in the 7th annual EdTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by EdTech Breakthrough, a leading market intelligence organization recognizing the top companies and solutions in the global educational technology market. Synergy Education Platform takes a Seamless-by-Design approach to student data management, featuring a single, centralized database that gives users real-time data systemwide, with access to all Synergy modules offered by their district in one place with one login. The Synergy Student Information Suite is built on the core SIS, which offers all the school and district administration capabilities districts expect, robust student performance administration with standards support, parent and student engagement tools, a suite of seven role-based mobile apps, a self-service kiosk app, and seamless third-party integrations including Ed-Fi, OneRoster®, and Google for Education™ productivity applications. Many highly sought-after tools are part of the core SIS functionality, such as automation and workflows, data validation, data trail and access auditing, a translation engine, hall pass management, a 360-degree student profile, and a secure emergency response system. Online registration, lottery and waitlisting, athletics management, and a powerful teacher portal and gradebook round out the Student Information Suite. Districts have the option of turning on generative AI features throughout Synergy Education Platform. This comprehensive functionality empowers teachers with a rich set of tools for managing classrooms and instructional resources, fosters student autonomy and safety, engages parents regardless of the language spoken at home, and helps schools and districts get the right information to the right people at the right time.
