Redefining Healthcare through AI-enhanced mammography Interpretation
Artificial Intelligence for early breast cancer detection
Early detection of breast cancer is important for better outcomes and treatment options. SecondReadAI™ uses artificial intelligence (AI) to perform a detailed analysis of your mammogram and alert the interpreting physician of any suspicious areas that may be too small for the human eye to identify.

How it works
Leveraging the power of AI (Artificial Intelligence), SecondReadAI™, a computer-based artificial intelligence tool, reviews and analyzes your breasts in a way that a human cannot. It looks at the images pixel by pixel and can detect suspicious breast tissue that might be obscured by dense tissue or that is too small for the human eye to detect. It is proven in clinical studies to help radiologists increase early-stage cancer detection by as much as 15%* and confidently reduce the number of unnecessary callbacks.
40% of breast cancer patients can be diagnosed earlier.**
The five-year survival rate of cancer detected early (Stage 1,2) is 96%***
Think of it as a second set of eyes using the best medical technology to provide a more detailed analysis of your mammogram. You will have peace of mind that every detail is analyzed.
Take care of yourself
Consider SecondReadAI™ as a second set of eyes to review the tiniest details of your mammogram and provide you with the peace of mind you deserve.
Catching potential problems early is key to staying healthy and staying ahead of breast cancer. Give this gift to yourself…because YOU’RE WORTH IT.

SecondReadAI FAQs
-
According to the American Cancer Society, 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. ****** The 5-year survival rate of early detected cancer (Stage 1 or 2) is 96% compared to 65% when detected in later-stage cancer (Stage 3 or 4).
SecondReadAI™ uses Lunit INSIGHT, an artificial intelligence tool that provides a digital analysis of your mammogram and alerts the physician to suspicious areas
According to a clinical study, Radiologists using AI (Lunit INSIGHT) significantly increased their cancer detection rate compared to the radiologists unassisted by AI.***
In the same clinical study, Lunit INSIGHT, as a standalone product, outperformed Radiologists in detecting early-stage (T1 and node-negative) cancers by as much as 15%.**

Your AI results are interpreted by the radiologist and are included in the mammography report.
-
No additional time is required of the patient. The AI analysis is applied after the images have been sent to the radiologist. The processing time is about 90 seconds for each study.
-
Currently, SecondReadAI™ is not available for patients with breast implants as it has not been cleared through the FDA for use in these cases.
The AI upgrade is designed for standard mammography, though we remain committed to advancing our services and expanding eligibility in the future.
-
No. SecondReadAI™ exists to assist the radiologist by providing a detailed analysis of the mammogram to point out areas of concern, which the radiologist then factors into the interpretation of the exam.
-
We selected Lunit INSIGHT because it has proven high performance compared to other AI tools. In a recent publication comparing the performance of other AI tools, Lunit INSIGHT showed the best overall performance (Link to full publication in Jama Oncology)
