RadNet and OB/GYN Specialists of the Palm Beaches Enhance Breast Cancer Screening with State-of-the-Art Imaging Services
February 26 2025 - 5:00AM
RadNet, Inc. (NASDAQ: RDNT), a national leader in providing
high-quality, cost-effective outpatient diagnostic imaging
services, today announced that OB/GYN Specialists of the Palm
Beaches (“OB/GYN Specialists”) is launching breast imaging services
across multiple locations in Palm Beach County, utilizing
technologies from RadNet and its wholly-owned subsidiary,
DeepHealth.
OB/GYN Specialists is the largest provider of obstetric and
gynecological care in Palm Beach County, serving nearly 60,000
women annually across 10 locations from Boca Raton to Port Saint
Lucie. The strategic partnership with RadNet enables on-site
mammography and breast cancer screening, using RadNet’s DeepHealth
diagnostic and operational artificial intelligence (AI) solutions,
along with expert radiologist interpretation. This screening
program aims to facilitate early detection and improve patient
outcomes.
As part of the collaboration, RadNet's contracted
board-certified breast imaging radiologists will provide
interpretation of all mammography and diagnostic screening exams
conducted across four OB/GYN Specialists locations. This service
for patients includes the Enhanced Breast Cancer Detection (EBCD)
protocol, which assists with the identification of even subtle
lesions sooner than otherwise would be detected without the use of
AI. EBCD employs DeepHealth artificial intelligence and a
comprehensive clinical review process to improve cancer detection
rates. Recent studies show a 21% increase in breast cancer
detection with EBCD, highlighting its importance in advancing
women’s health.
In addition to RadNet’s imaging services, OB/GYN Specialists
will incorporate DeepHealth’s AI-driven health informatics, which
features a cloud-based operating system, patient tracking services,
and risk assessment, designed to integrate with their electronic
health records (EHR) system.
“Our mission is to deliver comprehensive, patient-centered care
for women at every stage of life,” stated John Burgio, M.D.,
managing member of OB/GYN Specialists. “By integrating AI-powered
breast health screening into our practice, we improve early
detection and continuity of care. Our patients can now receive
reliable, high-quality breast imaging from RadNet’s specialized
radiologists—all within a familiar environment.”
“All women deserve access to high-quality breast screening,”
said Howard Berger, M.D., president and founder of RadNet. “By
bringing RadNet’s technology-enabled services and imaging expertise
directly into OB/GYN’s offices and other point-of-care provider
offices, we are making early detection more convenient, accurate,
and accessible.”
This collaboration highlights RadNet and OB/GYN Specialists'
shared commitment to expanding breast health services, empowering
women with proactive screening options, and driving innovation in
women’s healthcare.
