How does it work?<\/span><\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Digital tomosynthesis, or 3D mammography, is able to separately visualize objects placed at different depths by capturing 10-20 low-dose two-dimensional projections for different angles of the x-ray tube around the breast. The acquired data are reconstructed in a series of thin layers at high resolution.<\/p>\n

The DeepLook system is trained on one set of images in which the doctor has already identified the presence of tumour lesions; then a test is carried out on another set of images to verify that the system is able to recognize the tumours that the doctor has diagnosed.<\/p>\n

Once the system is trained and tested, it can become operational and help the senologist identify suspicious tumour masses on mammographic images.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
