AI-Powered Mobile Clinics Revolutionize Breast Cancer Screening in Rural India
A nonprofit initiative by the Health Within Reach Foundation is transforming breast cancer screening in rural India using AI-powered mobile clinics. These vans, equipped with digital mammography machines and AI software from MedCognetics, have screened over 3,500 women—90% of whom had never had a mammogram.
Key Highlights
- Mobile screening vans bring affordable, high-quality care directly to underserved communities.
- MedCognetics’ AI triages mammogram data onsite, identifying high-risk cases quickly.
- 300+ abnormal findings led to referrals, with 24 confirmed cancer cases treated early.
- Edge AI and cloud integration enable rapid analysis and remote radiologist collaboration.
- Advanced AI features include cancer detection, breast density assessment, and motion artifact suppression.
Broader Impact
This initiative addresses healthcare access gaps in developing regions, where late-stage cancer diagnoses are common due to limited screening. By deploying edge AI and cloud-based tools, MedCognetics and Health Within Reach aim to expand preventative care and improve survival rates across India’s rural population.
