ProFound AI and CAD Software for Enhanced Breast Cancer Detection

The ProFound AI is an AI-based software that assists radiologists in analyzing breast tissue images to identify suspicious areas that could be cancerous. This AI technology, powered by advanced algorithms, scans each mammogram to detect malignant soft tissue densities and calcifications. Our newest CAD software takes this a step further by providing a standardized Composition Score of the breast tissue, highlighting any areas that require further investigation.

Starting this fall, new mammography reporting requirements will be in effect, which include specific information about breast density. McKenzie Health System’s AI-driven CAD software ensures compliance with these standards, providing detailed insights into breast tissue composition and ensuring the highest quality of care.

Benefits of Our 3D Mammography and CAD Technology

  • Superior Diagnostic Accuracy: Our integrated 3D mammography technology delivers exceptionally sharp and detailed images, increasing the accuracy of breast cancer detection and diagnosis.
  • Earlier Detection: 3D mammography analyzes breast tissue in thin, detailed slices, allowing our radiologists to detect small cancers that might be obscured by overlapping tissue in a conventional 2D scan.
  • Enhanced Detection in Dense Breast Tissue: Dense breast tissue, often present in younger women, can make it difficult to detect tumors using traditional methods. Our 3D mammography takes multiple images from different angles, providing a clearer view of the breast tissue.
  • Reduced False Positives: The combination of 3D imaging and AI-powered CAD software significantly reduces the number of false positives, lowering the chances of unnecessary callbacks for additional tests or biopsies.
  • Improved Patient Experience: The Senographe Pristina 3D mammography system offers enhanced comfort, with improved positioning and rounded, gentle shapes. According to a recent survey, 86% of women found the experience comfortable.
  • Contrast Enhanced Spectral Mammography (CESM): If the radiologist detects a suspicious area, we can perform a CESM study, which involves an IV injection of contrast. Malignant masses are highlighted by the IV contrast, making them easier to detect.
