Intended Use Statements
Intended use (according to CE) iCAD ProFound AI for FFDM or 2D software is a computer-assisted detection and diagnosis (CAD) Artificial Intelligence (AI) software device intended to be used concurrently by interpreting physicians while reading 2D mammography exams from compatible 2D mammography systems. The system detects soft tissue densities (masses, architectural distortions and asymmetries) and calcifications in mammography images. The detections and Certainty of Finding and Case Scores assist interpreting physicians in identifying soft tissue densities and calcifications that may be confirmed or dismissed by the interpreting physician.
