New Advanced Tool to Aid Breast Cancer Screening
According to the American Cancer Society, it is estimated that there will be over 300,000 new cases of invasive breast cancer diagnosed in the U.S. in 2024. Fortunately, mammograms have become an important tool in the early diagnosis of breast cancer. For years, 2D mammograms were the standard. In the last several years, 3D technology added yet another level of detection. There is no doubt that mammograms have helped reduce the number of deaths from breast cancer and ever-changing technology continue to offer advancements that can make detection even more accurate.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) As A New Detection Tool
Bronson has added new AI technology to further elevate the power of mammography to detect breast cancer at the earliest possible stage. The earlier breast cancer is diagnosed, the easier and more effectively it can be treated. Now, when a radiologist reads the results of a mammogram for a Bronson patient, they have a new partner in AI.
Transpara Breast Care is based on a powerful AI solution implementing artificial intelligence and deep learning techniques. Transpara will not replace your radiologist. Rather, it is another tool that they can use to detect cancer more easily and more accurately. AI learns from human experience, taking in results over time and learning with each new case. Transpara AI has been ‘trained’ to help radiologists find breast cancer.
Transpara has been trained on over 1 million mammograms. It is currently being used in over 15 countries including the US, UK, Germany and the Netherlands. It’s like having an extra teammate working alongside our highly trained, experienced radiologists.
Bronson is committed to providing exceptional care and is always striving to utilize new technology like Transpara Breast Care to deliver safe, timely, accurate results. Because the earlier breast cancer is detected, the better the outcome.
