Muscat, 22 October 2021 – Mia®, a deep learning artificial intelligence (AI) solution that works with radiologists to improve breast cancer detection, avoid unnecessary biopsies and ultimately improve the patient experience for all women is being launched in Oman.
UK-based Kheiron Medical Technologies has signed an agreement with Waleed Pharmacy & Stores LLC, an Omar Zawawi Establishment (OMZEST) group company focused on bringing healthcare, hospital and pharmaceutical solutions to Oman, to bring its Mia solution to the Oman market. With patented AI technology developed on more than three million breast images, Mia (Mammography Intelligent Assessment) is designed to support breast radiologists in making the critical decision to recall women for further testing based on their mammography screening.
Mia is the first solution of its kind to receive the CE (European regulatory clearance) mark for use as an AI-enabled independent reader for the detection of breast cancer. Through rigorous clinical studies and testing, Mia has learnt to read mammograms to the same level of detail as a consulting radiologist.
