CoActiv tailors PACS for breast imaging

Identifying over 23 percent of interval breast cancers with a 96 percent sensitivity in mammography interpretation, an emerging AI software also facilitated correct localization in over 75 percent of cases involving interval breast cancer, according to new research.

In the third episode of a three-part podcast, Anand Narayan, M.D., Ph.D., and Amy Patel, M.D., discuss the challenges of expanded breast cancer screening amid a backdrop of radiologist shortages and ever-increasing volume on radiology worklists.

Intended for mammography and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) interpretation, the device reportedly emphasizes high-definition image quality and ease of use for radiologists.

In the second episode of a three-part podcast, Anand Narayan, M.D., Ph.D., and Amy Patel, M.D., discuss recent studies published by the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) that suggested moving to more of a risk-adapted model for mammography screening.

After being informed about the benefits and risks associated with screening mammography, over a third of women polled indicated a preference to delay breast cancer screening.

The AISmartDensity software facilitated a cancer detection rate (CDR) with breast MRI that was nearly four times higher than the CDR previously reported in trials involving traditional breast density assessment.
