ProFound Pioneers: Case Studies
Radiologie am Theater is a private radiology practice that operates three offices in and around Paderborn, Germany. Since the 2006 debut of the German National Breast Screening Program, the center has offered screening services led by Dr. Axel Gräwingholt, head of the Department of Mammography Screening and clinical co-chair on the guideline group of the European Commission Initiative, on Breast Cancer (ECIBC), an initiative developing new evidence-based recommendations of guidelines for the whole breast cancer care pathway.
Imaging for Women Offers Artificial Intelligence Solution for Digital Breast Tomosynthesis
Imaging for Women opened its doors in 1997 as Kansas City’s first stand-alone women’s imaging center because Dr. Mark Malley envisioned a better way for women to experience healthcare.
Its philosophy has always been to offer patients the best possible experience when visiting the facility. To accomplish this, Imaging for Women utilizes the most innovative technology on the market today including digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) or 3D mammography and whole breast ultrasound that is performed by highly-skilled, certified technologists that make patient comfort and compassion a top priority.
Southwest Diagnostic Imaging Center Uses Artificial Intelligence to Optimize Breast Tomosynthesis Interpretations
Located in a spacious 25,000 square foot facility on the Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas campus, Southwest Diagnostic Imaging Center is one of the largest freestanding imaging centers in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Since 1985, the facility has provided thousands of patients from Texas and across the nation with the highest standard of service and a patient centered approach to care.
Summit Medical Group Adopts PowerLook Density Assessment to Provide More Objective, Accurate Breast Density Reporting
The Summit Medical Group Breast Care Center offers comprehensive support and care of benign breast health conditions and all stages of breast cancer.

Swedish-American Hospital Adopts PowerLook Density Assessment to Help Radiologists More Consistently Identify Patients with Dense Breasts
Swedish-American Hospital (SAH), a division of UW Health, is dedicated to providing excellence in healthcare and compassionate care to the community. The hospital includes 30 primary care and multi-specialty clinics including the Center for Women and serves residents of 12 counties in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin.
Clinical Case Studies & White Papers
The addition of DBT to full-field digital mammography (FFDM) improves radiologist performance by increasing cancer detection rates [1-4] and lowering recall rates [2-7], but also increases reading time almost two-fold [1, 8, 9], compared to 2D alone. Thus, ProFound AI was designed to maintain or improve radiologist clinical performance, while significantly reducing reading time.
