Overview
- Prognosia Breast uses machine learning on 2D and 3D images to generate a personalized five-year breast cancer risk score from routine mammograms.
- Developed at Washington University and licensed to Prognosia Inc., the tool is reported to predict risk over two times more accurately than questionnaire-based methods.
- The FDA’s Breakthrough Device designation, awarded July 30, initiates an expedited review pathway toward full market approval.
- A clinical trial at Siteman Cancer Center will assess how integrating the AI-derived risk scores with standard screening impacts early detection.
- Risk scores of 3% or higher will trigger specialist referrals in accordance with ASCO and USPSTF preventive oncology guidelines.
