While mammography is still a trusted method for both screening and diagnostic purposes in detecting breast malignancies, tomosynthesis is now the dominant model for both screening and diagnostic exams. This breast AI supports screening and diagnostic evaluations for 2D mammograms and tomosynthesis (also known as 3D mammograms).
