Groundbreaking New Data on Hologic’s AI-Powered Mammography Technology to Be Presented at SBI

MARLBOROUGH, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 24, 2025--

Hologic, Inc. (Nasdaq: HOLX) will have a strong presence at the Society of Breast Imaging (SBI) Annual Symposium in Colorado Springs, Colorado this week, including the presentation of pivotal new research conducted by a top-tier healthcare facility focused on the company’s AI-driven mammography technology.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250424821675/en/

In a retrospective study conducted at Massachusetts General Hospital, researchers analyzed 5,000 digital breast tomosynthesis (3D mammography) screening exams performed between 2016 and 2019 using Hologic’s Genius AI ® Detection 2.0 mammography solution. Among the 5,000 exams, there were 100 cancer cases that were not initially detected by radiologists but were later confirmed to be malignant. The study looked at whether Genius AI Detection 2.0 was able to identify any of these previously missed cancers, as well as its ability to detect and correctly localize the 500 cancers that were initially identified by radiologists.

“As AI continues to evolve, I believe it will become an increasingly vital tool for radiologists, helping to transform breast cancer detection and ultimately reduce the burden of this disease for patients,” said Manisha Bahl, M.D., MPH, FSBI, Breast Imaging Division Quality Director and Co-Service Chief at Massachusetts General Hospital and Associate Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Bahl will present a summary of the research, titled “Artificial Intelligence (AI)-Based Computer-Assisted Detection and Diagnosis for Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT): Characteristics of AI-Detected versus AI-Missed Breast Cancers,” at 2:45 p.m. MT today in Broadmoor Hall C.

At the symposium, Hologic will also highlight its contrast-enhanced mammography technology, the Envision™ Mammography Platform, and the new Genius AI Detection PRO solution, which offers advanced cancer detection by analyzing prior exams and an AI assistant with automated reporting and other workflow features. Genius AI Detection PRO also includes a red-yellow-green color-coded system, where green cases signify that the AI is confident there is no breast cancer present while red means the AI is confident there is cancer present. Designed to simplify the entire reading workflow, Genius AI Detection PRO solution has been shown to reduce radiologists’ overall reading time up to 24%. 1

Hologic will also host the following informational sessions at SBI, focused on the latest innovations in medical imaging:

“It’s an exciting time for breast health innovation, and we’re proud to showcase our latest advancements at this year’s SBI event,” said Mark Horvath, President of Breast and Skeletal Health Solutions. “From AI-driven solutions to breast surgery technologies, Hologic continues to lead the way in redefining the breast health continuum and improving the standard of care for women everywhere.”

Groundbreaking New Data on Hologic’s AI-Powered Mammography Technology to Be Presented at SBI

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Sean Walker cut to the middle of the ice and beat Logan Thompson for a critical late goal, then Andrei Svechnikov followed with an empty-net clincher to help the Carolina Hurricanes beat the Washington Capitals 5-2 on Monday night and take a 3-1 lead in their second-round playoff series.

Carolina improved to 5-0 at home in the playoffs and can clinch a second trip to the Eastern Conference final in three years by winning Game 5 in Washington on Thursday.

“If I'm just honest with how I feel about it, I thought our first two games (on the road) might've been better than some of these games — just the chances we've given up, a little too much here for me,” Hurricanes coach Rod Brind'Amour said. “But obviously at this time of year, it's about results. I like where we're at, that's for sure.”

Walker's score was a big one, coming after the Capitals had pulled to within 3-2 on Alex Ovechkin's one-timer blast on a 5-on-3 power play with about eight minutes left. It started on a puck battle and the unusual sight of Washington's Rasmus Sandin skating in only to get the blade of his stick stuck in a gap along the boards, allowing Taylor Hall to collect the puck and flip a pass to the surging Walker up the left side.

Walker hesitated to cut behind Jack Roslovic and score at the 16:45 mark to push the lead back to 4-2, marking his first career postseason goal.

Svechnikov followed with his seventh postseason goal shortly after the Capitals pulled Thompson, the capper after Carolina twice led by two goals but had to hold on through the final 10 minutes.

“I think as a whole, we kind of kept our composure,” Walker said. “Didn't really panic, just stuck to our systems.”

Hall, Seth Jarvis and Shayne Gostisbehere also scored for the Hurricanes, while Frederik Andersen carried a shutout into the third before finishing with 19 saves.

Just as importantly, the Hurricanes twice responded as the Capitals inched within a goal in the third. Hall's score on a 1-on-1 chance came less than three minutes after Jakob Chychrun had brought the Capitals to within 2-1, sprung on a long pass from Roslovic after he was slow coming back and Washington's defense lost track of him.

Walker's score came about 4 1/2 minutes after Ovechkin's goal.

Ovechkin's blast got the NHL's career goals leader on the scoresheet for the first time this series. Thompson finished with 32 saves.

“We're giving ourselves some opportunities, we're just not executing, making the play, whatever you want to call it,” Washington coach Spencer Carbery said. “And making some mistakes — and they're capitalizing.”

To that point, the Eastern Conference's top seed got a quick start after a Game 3 shutout, starting with Connor McMichael getting a 1-on-1 chance on Andersen in the opening minute. Aliaksei Protas followed by ringing the right post shortly after.

Washington also managed just one shot on goal during a 4-minute power play, the first 3 1/2 minutes of those coming to close the first period.

“Their penalty kill is excellent, best in the league, has been for the last, whatever, five years call it,” Carbery said. “But it can't look like that. It cannot look like that.”
