“Dr. Traill’s latest research is a significant step forward in the application of iCAD’s ProFound AI Risk for breast cancer risk assessment. The ability to identify women with a higher likelihood of breast cancer by analyzing changes in AI-derived risk score between a woman’s prior and current mammogram will facilitate earlier intervention and improve outcomes,” said
“Additionally, with our ProFound Cloud platform, we are enabling healthcare providers to seamlessly integrate our suite of solutions, including ProFound AI for Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT), ProFound AI Risk, and ProFound AI for 2D Mammography into their practice, ensuring that more women can benefit from early and accurate breast cancer detection through a cost-effective, secure and scalable SaaS solution.”
Clinical Abstract Highlights
Dr. Traill’s study investigates how changes in AI-derived risk scores from prior to current mammograms can serve as a metric for calculating breast cancer risk. The retrospective study analyzed risk score changes between prior and current DBT mammograms in cohorts of 514 controls and 52 cancers. ProFound AI Risk predicts one-year absolute breast cancer risk by extracting mammographic features, density and age.
The results indicate that a change in AI-derived risk score between a woman’s prior and current mammograms is a strong predictor of breast cancer risk, with a two-fold increase in risk for every 0.2 unit increase in the score. Notably, a significant proportion of women initially classified as low risk showed a substantial increase in risk at their subsequent mammogram.
“This study is important because it helps us identify women at a very high, short-term risk of breast cancer by analyzing changes in AI-derived risk scores between mammograms,” said
“Our preliminary results showed that risk score change over time was a very strong metric for developing breast cancer,” continued
ProFound Cloud Highlights
Built on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), ProFound Cloud enables healthcare providers to integrate cutting-edge AI technology into their practice seamlessly, enhancing diagnostic accuracy, operational efficiency, and patient outcomes.
ProFound Cloud provides advanced capabilities such as continuous updates, scalability, and secure data handling. It allows for the rapid deployment of AI solutions, minimizing the need for extensive on-premises infrastructure and reducing the total cost of ownership for healthcare providers. This flexibility ensures that facilities of all sizes can benefit from the latest advancements in breast health AI technology.
“Our ProFound Cloud platform is designed to democratize access to advanced AI solutions, making it feasible for healthcare providers of all sizes to benefit from our leading breast health technologies. Early performance results from the first 15,000 ProFound AI cloud cases show an impressive processing time that is over 50% faster compared to many traditional on-premises deployment solutions,” continued Brown.
“ProFound Cloud signifies a remarkable leap forward in mammography, offering our imaging network across the
