Building on Volpara's breast health expertise, Lunit strengthens its U.S. presence—now delivering AI-powered breast cancer screening across 200 imaging sites
SEOUL, South Korea, May 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lunit (KRX:328130.KQ), a leading provider of AI for cancer diagnostics and therapeutics, today announced major milestones in the United States, one year after its acquisition of Volpara Health Technologies.
Since acquiring Volpara, Lunit has significantly expanded its presence across North America. By June 2025, Lunit's AI solutions for digital breast tomosynthesis (Lunit INSIGHT DBT) and mammography analysis (Lunit INSIGHT MMG) will be deployed at over 200 imaging centers and hospitals across the U.S., with approximately 350 to 400 radiologists utilizing its technology.
Together, Lunit and Volpara now power more than one million annual mammograms across North America — a major step forward in the company's U.S. growth strategy.
Lunit's growing customer base includes leading healthcare providers such as Rezolut, SimonMed Imaging, and UC Davis Health, reflecting its strengthening position in the U.S. medical imaging market.
In addition to its expanding U.S. footprint, Lunit and Volpara introduced the concept of a comprehensive Ecosystem for Cancer Detection and Care at RSNA 2024. The Ecosystem is designed to unify AI technologies for lesion detection, workflow optimization, quality control, and patient engagement—empowering clinicians with actionable insights and scalable solutions across the cancer care continuum.
Lunit and Volpara also demonstrated the complementary value of combining Lunit INSIGHT Risk and Volpara Risk Pathways at RSNA 2024—offering a glimpse into how imaging-based and clinical data may be used together to personalize breast cancer risk assessment. The two solutions were shown as a prototype to work in tandem, that would predict the likelihood of breast cancer development within 1 to 5 years, to enable earlier interventions, more personalized care, and redefine standards for breast cancer screening and management.
"The successful integration of Lunit and Volpara has accelerated our mission to transform cancer diagnostics globally, and the momentum we've built in the United States marks just the beginning," said Brandon Suh, CEO of Lunit. "By combining Lunit's AI innovation with Volpara's breast health expertise, we're delivering a new standard of comprehensive support for clinicians—enhancing early detection, improving screening quality, optimizing workflows, and ultimately helping providers deliver better outcomes for patients worldwide. With our expanded footprint and comprehensive ecosystem, we are poised to lead the future of cancer care."
Lunit plans to further expand its U.S. operations, building on its strong foundation with next-generation AI solutions, dedicated clinical support, and a growing ecosystem designed to shape the future of cancer detection and care.
Founded in 2013, Lunit (KRX:328130.KQ) is a global leader in AI for cancer diagnostics and therapeutics. With a mission to conquer cancer through AI, Lunit develops AI-powered solutions for medical imaging and biomarker analysis to enable precise diagnosis and personalized treatment. Lunit's FDA-cleared Lunit INSIGHT suite supports cancer screening at over 4,800 medical institutions in more than 55 countries. Lunit clinical studies have been featured in top-tier journals—including The Lancet Digital Health and Journal of Clinical Oncology —and presented at major conferences such as ASCO and RSNA.

ASEAN LAW FORUM 2025 MARKS REGIONAL MILESTONE IN LEGAL REFORM AND COOPERATION

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Aug. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Today marked the conclusion of the historic first ASEAN Law Forum, held from 19 to 21 August at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC). The Forum represented an essential step forward in ASEAN's commitment to trust-building, strengthening its position on the global stage, and highlighting the significant strides made by our region towards enhancing legal reform. In this regard, the Legal Affairs Division, Prime Minister's Department wishes to express our utmost appreciation to Prime Minister's Office and Ministry of Foreign Affairs for all the assistance and guidance in making this forum a success. Building up to the Forum, and in alignment with the Malaysian Government's vision of enhancing regional cooperation and inclusivity, the groundwork was laid through bilateral engagements with ASEAN Member States through the ASEAN Tour, and the Kuala Lumpur Forum on International Arbitration held in 2024. The Forum brought together policymakers, legal practitioners, academics, and stakeholders from ASEAN and beyond. Under the theme " Enhancing Access to Justice in the ASEAN Economic Community: Bridging Legal Cooperation for Inclusive Growth in the Digital Age", we addressed critical areas including arbitration, mediation, online safety, cross-border insolvency, cyber-related crimes, criminal and commercial law reforms, business and human rights, and the responsible integration of artificial intelligence in justice systems. The discussions and dynamic engagement underscored our collective effort to address and resolve emerging challenges proactively, delivering tangible benefits domestically and regionally, seeking to ensure a consistent and predictable dispute resolution environment, which is essential for regional economic stability and business confidence. Additionally, specialised panels effectively tackled essential matters such as Islamic finance and arbitration, sports arbitration, maritime arbitration and ESG in supply chains. These focused sessions have reinforced our strategic commitment to targeted legal reforms tailored to contemporary and future needs. The Forum concluded with the adoption of a Joint Statement by ASEAN Law Ministers on International Commercial Arbitration and Mediation Development. The adoption of the Joint Statement was signed by YB Dato' Sri Azalina Othman Said, Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (law and Institutional Reform) on behalf of Malaysia, and witnessed by the Honourable Prime Minister of Malaysia, YAB Dato' Seri Anwar bin Ibrahim. This commitment reflects our shared vision of enhancing legal standards and cooperation within ASEAN, solidifying rule-of-law foundations, economic resilience, and regional unity. This achievement underscores Malaysia's commitment to forward-thinking and practical legal reform, grounded in outcomes that strengthen the ASEAN legal ecosystem. Prior to the adoption of the Joint Statement, YB Dato' Sri Azalina Othman and the Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Law and Institutional Reform) YB M. Kula Segaran went on a regional tour across the ASEAN member states to engage directly with the Ministers of Law and Justice and the representatives from their national legal institutions. These engagements and discussions are aimed to promote regional cooperation on the international commercial arbitration and mediation development, through the support and consensus of the Joint Statement led by Malaysia.
