HIMSSCast: How Karmanos Cancer Institute uses AI to find high-risk breast cancer

Andrea Fox January 12, 2024

The Karmanos Cancer Institute in Detroit is using AI to improve risk assessment for breast cancer patients, focusing on early detection. Deploying Volpara’s AI-based risk assessment software at the point of mammogram screenings, the institute has been able to identify 700 high-risk patients from 7,000 screenings. These patients, with risk scores above 20%, are then streamlined into the institute’s woman’s wellness program for early diagnosis and treatment.
