New publication proves that Transpara by ScreenPoint Medical helps radiologists improve their accuracy with 3D mammography

More peer reviewed evidence demonstrates that Transpara not only improves Radiologists’ accuracy but also helps to speed up reading time of 3D mammograms

Another key publication, this time in the European Radiology journal, shows the benefits of using Transpara breast AI with 3D mammography.

Here are the key findings from the publication by S L van Winkel, A Rodríguez-Ruiz, L Appelman, A Gubern-Mérida, N Karssemeijer, J Teuwen, A J T Wanders, I Sechopoulos, R M Mann. Impact of artificial intelligence support on accuracy and reading time in breast tomosynthesis image interpretation: a multi-reader multi-case study. European Radiology (2021) https://doi.org/10.1007/s00330-021-07992-w

Key points:

  • Radiologists improved their cancer detection accuracy in digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) when using an AI system for support, while simultaneously reducing reading time.
  • The stand-alone breast cancer detection performance of Transpara matched the average performance of radiologists for reading digital breast tomosynthesis exams.
  • The use of Transpara could allow for more cost-effective breast cancer screening programs with DBT.
