Axia Women's Health Revolutionizes Mammography with AI Technology
In a significant advancement in women's healthcare, Axia Women's Health has launched an innovative service that incorporates artificial intelligence (AI) into the mammography process. Officially cleared by the FDA, this groundbreaking technology is offered at no cost to patients, reflecting the company's dedication to promoting early and accurate breast cancer detection.
MammoScreen®, the intelligent system employed in this initiative, acts as a second opinion for radiologists, fundamentally enhancing the mammogram review process. This dual-read methodology has shown impressive results, identifying 38.5% of screen-detectable cancers up to two years before they would typically be diagnosed, according to retrospective studies. This proactive approach exemplifies Axia's commitment to combating breast cancer, which affects approximately one in eight women in the United States.
Accessibility and Convenience
In collaboration with Onsite Women's Health, MammoScreen is now integrated into the broad Axia Women's Health network, accessible throughout numerous imaging centers located across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Indiana. Each facility is conveniently co-located with existing Axia OB/GYN care centers, making it easier for women to obtain comprehensive health services without the hassle of traveling between separate appointments.
Dr. Richard Gates, Co-Chief Medical Officer at Axia Women's Health, stated, "Women deserve more when it comes to their health. Too often, cost or access can stand in the way of lifesaving care. By providing this added technology at no cost across our many imaging centers, our goal is to break down those barriers and give women greater peace of mind with every mammogram."
The importance of early detection cannot be overstated. When breast cancer is identified at an early stage, the five-year survival rate soars to over 90%. The AI-assisted mammography system enhances traditional screening methods, allowing for greater precision and earlier recognition of potential cancer signs.
Commitment to Quality Care
This initiative aligns with Axia Women's Health’s overarching mission to deliver high-quality, compassionate, and progressive care that accompanies women through every phase of their lives. Notably, this service is uniquely available to Axia patients, reinforcing the organization’s focus on personalized healthcare.
