Volpara Solutions will exhibit its complete suite of quantitative breast imaging tools built on the Volpara Solutions software engine that allows for personalized measurements of volumetric breast density, patient-specific dose, breast compression and other factors designed to maintain accuracy and consistent quality in breast screening.
CAD Inc. announced that, in addition to Volpara Density volumetric breast density assessment software, Volpara Analytics and Volpara Dose solutions are now available as part of iCAD’s PowerLook Advanced Mammography Platform (AMP).
September 4, 2014 — Based on its recent analysis of the breast imaging solutions market, Frost & Sullivan recognized Volpara Solutions with the 2014 North American Frost & Sullivan Award for Technology Innovation Leadership.
Balancing clinical benefit and patient-specific measurement of radiation dose received during breast screening using tomosynthesis and mammography is the focus of research being presented this week at the 56th American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) Annual Meeting, July 20-24, 2014 in Austin.
The ability to generate patient specific mammographic dose using volumetric breast density data from 2-D mammography and 3-D tomosynthesis was among the research presented at the 12th International Workshop on Breast Imaging (IWDM 2014), June 29-July 2, 2014.
The fifth edition of Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) Atlas issued by the American College of Radiology (ACR) included changes in breast density reporting categories. Volpara Solutions, producers of VolparaDensity software, said this is a step toward the provision of accurate breast density measurements to women by the renewed emphasis on volumetric assessments.
Matakina International announced that The Hospital of Central Connecticut (HOCC) is the first facility in Connecticut to adopt VolparaDensity breast imaging software, designed to help overcome the limitations of mammography to detect cancer in women with dense breasts. The Enterprise installation of HOCC provides the ability to offer objective volumetric breast density values for mammograms performed at six facilities on eight Hologic full-field mammography systems.
Radiologists at ProMedica Toledo Hospital Breast Care Center have a new tool to help evaluate breast tissue density on a mammogram.
Building on their breast care analytics expertise, Volpara Solutions will launch VolparaAnalytics and VolparaDose at RSNA. VolparaAnalytics and VolparaDose (pending U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) review) join VolparaDensity to round out a suite of breast care analytics designed to offer new insights from mammography volumetric data. Visit Volpara at RSNA in Hall A, Booth 5925.
Volpara breast density measurement software provides an objective, reproducible measurement of breast density designed to improve early detection among women with dense breasts. It is used by radiologists to objectively assess density and help evaluate who might benefit from additional screening.
