"We've reinvented the mammography experience with a compassionate, patient-focused approach," said Alexander Sardiña, MD, Chief Medical Officer at Solis Mammography. "We ensure that all of our facilities are equipped with the latest, state-of-the-art screening and diagnostic technologies designed to improve the patient experience and offer women peace of mind. The recent adoption of ProFound AI for DBT throughout our network will allow our radiologists to quickly and accurately evaluate their patients' 3D mammography images and aid in the identification of suspicious lesions earlier. In addition, the ability to provide a short-term, two-year breast cancer risk assessment will significantly enhance clinical decision making and further complement the armamentarium of breast cancer diagnostic and therapeutic tools available at Solis Mammography."

ProFound AI for DBT is proven to curtail workflow challenges substantially by reducing radiologists' reading time by 52.7%, thereby reducing by half the amount of time it takes radiologists to read 3D mammography datasets. Additionally, the platform improved radiologists' performance measured by Area Under the Curve (AUC) by nearly 6% and reduced unnecessary patient recall rates by more than 7%.
