Context:
- Europe has a double reader standard (2 human radiologists read every screening case)
- AI (Mia) was used only after both human readers had submitted their opinion (AI was after standard of care)
Headline metrics:
- Mia increased cancer detection rate by 13% (20% of missed cancers overall)
- 83% of cancers were invasive (can spread through body)
- 47.0% were <10mm (generally harder to detect and earlier in development)
