“ProFound AI is revolutionizing the way mammography is
performed, and with about two times the improvement in clinical performance
compared to leading competitors,[1] this
leading-edge technology is making some of the country’s best radiologists even
better,” said Dana Brown, President and CEO of iCAD, inc. “We are delighted to
feature Dr. Schilling in this upcoming event and look forward to hearing her
share more of her clinical experience, best practices, and compelling case
studies demonstrating the unique workflow benefits our technology offers.”
During the event, Dr. Schilling will discuss the research
she recently presented
at the European Congress of Radiology (ECR) meeting demonstrating how ProFound
AI helped nine dedicated breast radiologists at the facility find 23% more
cancers, without increasing the rate of recalls. She will also present a live
clinical case review showcasing how ProFound AI can enhance cancer detection in
a clinical setting.
“ProFound AI improved the performance of all nine
dedicated breast radiologists, across the board. We read mammography every day,
with decades of experience combined – we thought we were pretty good at it. But
we were surprised to learn that ProFound AI made us even better,” said Dr.
Schilling. “Now that I’ve seen the measurable improvements this technology offers,
both to our team and our patients, I’ll never read another mammogram without
it.”
ProFound AI became the first technology of its kind to be
FDA cleared in 2018. Built with the latest in deep-learning artificial
intelligence, ProFound AI is clinically proven to improve radiologists’
sensitivity by 8%, reduce the rate of false positives and unnecessary callbacks
by 7%, and slash reading time by more than half.[2]

administrative experts, along with customer success stories and impactful case
studies from facilities worldwide. Previous event recordings are available on
