At the launch, representatives from Siemens Healthineers Vietnam shared an in-depth presentation of the features and benefits of the new 3D mammography system, MAMMOMAT Inspiration, integrated with Transpara® AI (developed by ScreenPoint Medical), as a cutting-edge tool which supports rapid and precise assessment and detection of abnormalities. This technique is particularly effective for patients with dense breast tissue, which is often difficult to diagnose with conventional methods.
Mrs. Joan Loh, Head of X-ray Products, Siemens Healthineers ASEAN, emphasized: "The 50-degree wide-angle tomosynthesis plays a crucial role in enhancing the early detection of breast cancer, with studies showing a 43% increase in invasive cancer detection and a 15%1 dose reduction in just a single-view scan2. Furthermore, the integration of Transpara® AI, developed by ScreenPoint Medical with deep learning capabilities, will be an invaluable tool for radiologists in breast cancer screening."
With the integration of Artificial Intelligence into clinical practice, Family Medical Practice employs a "triple-read" approach — starting with a breast radiologist, followed by AI assistance, and a final review by an expert —ensuring that no detail is overlooked. Care1 checkup center is also equipped with modern facilities and cutting-edge equipment, which ensure high-quality healthcare services and peace of mind for patients.
Dr. Rafi Kot, Internal Medicine, CEO and Founder of FMP Healthcare Group, stated: "The deployment of 3D mammography integrated with Transpara® AI marks a significant advancement in our ability to diagnose and detect breast cancer at an early stage. Transpara® AI is built on over 7 million data cases and works alongside radiologists to analyze mammography images with high accuracy3. The system can process a large number of images in a relative short time, detecting even the smallest signs of cancer that may be missed by the human eye. With its continuous learning capabilities and improvement in its algorithms, Transpara® AI delivers increasingly accurate results with each analysis. At FMP - Care1, At FMP - Care1, we take pride in being one of the pioneering institutions in Vietnam to implement this AI system in a clinical environment, contributing to the enhancement of women's healthcare quality.”
