A startup called Niramai Health Analytix has launched a home breast health screening service based on thermal imaging and artificial intelligence (AI), according to a report posted on 5 June by the Indian online publication YourStory.
The service is designed to help women who want to check their breast health for the first time, are due for an annual examination, or who have noticed changes in their breasts, the report said.
Niramai is based in Bengaluru, India. Women can book an appointment online; a female technologist comes to their home within 48 hours and assesses their breast health using the company's Thermalytix device, which combines thermal imaging and AI to measure the temperature of the chest and help detect early-stage breast cancer, according to YourStory.
![A normal mammogram confirmed by three-year radiologic follow-up illustrates reader-marked regions of interest (ROIs) during (A) unaided (round 1) and (B) artificial intelligence (AI)–assisted (round 2) reading. Each colored dot represents an ROI for recall by a human reader. Readers could mark more than one ROI per case, represented by multiple dots of the same color. During AI-assisted reading, the AI system displayed three visible prompts: two with suspicion of malignancy scores of 35% (left mediolateral oblique [L MLO] and craniocaudal [L CC]) and one with a suspicion of malignancy score of 10% (right craniocaudal [R CC]), shown as polygonal overlays. Without AI, six of 10 readers (60%) marked a false-positive ROI. With AI assistance, this fell to two of 10 (20%). R MLO = right mediolateral oblique.](https://img.auntminnieeurope.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/07/2026-07-14-radiology-mammogram-ai-auto-bias.H0bYO8QlWs.jpg?auto=format%2Ccompress&dpr=2&fit=crop&h=167&q=70&w=250)
