News Summary

  • Vara announced the certification on Wednesday in a statement issued through Business Wire.
  • The mark is a Class IIb CE certification under the EU Medical Device Regulation.
  • Vara credits the certification less to the model than to the safety layer wrapped around it.
  • It calls that layer ATMON, for Autonomous-Triage Monitoring.
  • The company says ATMON sets and monitors each site’s operating point, then tracks changes in mammography hardware, system health and daily performance signals.
  • When those numbers move outside defined limits, it reverts the site to full radiologist reading.
A Berlin company has won the worlds first regulatory clearance for AI that closes a breast screening case. No radiologist looks at it.
