Giotto USA will be demonstrating at RSNA 2011 its 3D and 3DL digital mammography systems, which recently received FDA 510(k) clearance.
The Giotto systems include a ring-shaped tilting gantry, which the company said provides for patient-friendly face-to-face positioning and easier positioning for the technologist. The 3D has an 18 x 24 cm bucky, and the 3DL has a 24 x 30 cm bucky.
Other features of the systems include Insight View, Giotto’s new image processing software with the second generation Selenium Detector technology, inclined positioning for better visualization, and the opportunity to add the Biopsy Digit stereotactic biopsy device.
AI-Initiated Recalls After Screening Mammography Demonstrate Higher PPV for Breast Cancer
March 18th 2025While recalls initiated by one of two reviewing radiologists after screening mammography were nearly 10 percent higher than recalls initiated by an AI software, the AI-initiated recalls had an 85 percent higher positive predictive value for breast cancer, according to a new study.
ECR Mammography Study: Pre-Op CEM Detects 34 Percent More Multifocal Masses than Mammography
February 28th 2025In addition to contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) demonstrating over a 90 percent detection rate for multifocal masses, researchers found that no significant difference between histological measurements and CEM, according to study findings presented at the European Congress of Radiology.
Study: Mammography AI Leads to 29 Percent Increase in Breast Cancer Detection
February 5th 2025Use of the mammography AI software had a nearly equivalent false positive rate as unassisted radiologist interpretation and resulted in a 44 percent reduction in screen reading workload, according to findings from a randomized controlled trial involving over 105,000 women.
