Since the
beginning of the pandemic, there has been a growing realisation amongst clinicians to start embracing smarter technology to achieve
better workflow efficiency and clinical confidence across the patient pathway.
HOLOGIC'S 3DIMENSIONS™ MAMMOGRAPHY SYSTEM
Hologic's 3Dimensions™ mammography system has become smarter, bringing breast
cancer screening to a new level of improving cancer detection accuracy, optimising workflow, and supporting personalised patient
care. The integrated AI powered software solutions employ machine learning and deep learning algorithms developed and trained on a high
number of varied Hologic tomosynthesis images to aid cancer detection, assess breast density and accelerate diagnosis.
ENHANCED WORKFLOW EFFICIENCY
Using artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to preserve clinical information, Hologic's 3DQuorum™ imaging technology, powered by Genius AI™*,
uniquely reconstructs high-resolution tomosynthesis slices to create 6mm SmartSlices
at the point of care.¹ When a Radiologist reads SmartSlices instead of 1mm tomosynthesis slices, the number of 3D
images to review is reduced by 66%,²,³ leading to average
interpretation time saving of one hour per day, based on eight hours of image interpretation time.⁴
In addition, 3DQuorum technology reduces the typical Hologic high
resolution Clarity HD® and Intelligent 2D™ file size by
over 50%, bringing the storage space and network impact back down to that of standard resolution 3D imaging.⁵
MAXIMUM CLINICAL CONFIDENCE
The addition of Genius AI™ Detection technology to the 3D mammography system allows technologists to flag high risk cases for immediate
reading, meaning that radiologists can detect breast cancer with higher confidence. Using deep
learning technology, advanced artificial intelligence algorithms highlight points of interest that could potentially be cancerous. The
algorithm is trained using a high-volume image database and is intended for current reading
to aid interpretation. In addition to identifying potential cancers, Genius AI Detection software provides case level metrics allowing
you to categories cases for priority reading enhancing your workflow.
Where AI
might really come into its own is risk stratification for women with dense breast tissue, known to be at particularly high risk of developing
breast cancer. Compatible with images acquired from Hologic's mammography systems, Quantra™ breast density assessment software, applies
machine-learning to analyse each patient's individual breast pattern and texture, providing objective assessments of breast density (using
ACR BIRADS® Atlas Fifth Edition criteria).
Therefore,
a fully automated methodology can offer a completely unbiased and reproducible option to assess and report breast density category. Hologic
is excited to be at the forefront of offering AI solutions which ultimately unlock the advantage of time for our patients, ensuring the best
possible experiences and outcomes.
Our patients are at the heart of everything we do, both in the clinical setting and beyond. There is still much to be done, however the future of mammography with the inclusion of AI solutions seems a promising one.
