A NEW ERA IN CANCER DIAGNOSIS WITH METAKSOFT LIMITED: AI AT THE DOCTOR’S SIDE
Millions of people around the world battle cancer each year. Early diagnosis is critical, as it significantly increases the chances of successful treatment. In recent years, the healthcare industry has undergone a revolutionary transformation: Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies are now actively assisting doctors in cancer detection. Turkish health informatics company Metaksoft Limited is at the forefront of this transformation with its AI-powered products like Meta4mammo and Meta4thorax. These systems offer reliable clinical decision support to medical professionals.
Why AI-Powered Medical Imaging Matters
Medical imaging techniques are among the most essential diagnostic tools, especially in cancer detection. However, radiologists face an increasing workload and the sheer volume of images can lead to fatigue and potential diagnostic errors. This is where AI steps in.
AI algorithms can detect even the slightest abnormalities in medical images, helping physicians make faster and more accurate decisions. With continuous learning capabilities, these systems improve their performance over time.
Meta4mammo: Intelligent Support in Mammography Analysis
Meta4mammo is an AI-powered system designed to analyze mammography images used in breast cancer screenings. This process, often time-consuming for radiologists, is supported by Meta4mammo in several impactful ways:
- Lesion Detection: The system automatically highlights potentially cancerous areas in the mammogram.
- Anomaly Classification: It categorizes findings such as calcifications, masses, or asymmetries and provides a detailed risk assessment.
- Preliminary Reporting: Based on its findings, the system generates a preliminary report to aid the physician’s final evaluation.
Meta4mammo offers high diagnostic accuracy in detecting early-stage breast cancers, which is especially critical in patients with dense breast tissue.
Meta4thorax: A Reliable Eye in Chest Disease Diagnosis
Meta4thorax is used in the diagnosis of thoracic diseases, particularly lung cancer, by analyzing CT (Computed Tomography) scans and chest X-rays. It offers the following advantages:
- Nodule Detection and Measurement: The system identifies lung nodules and measures key features such as size and density.
- AI-Powered Risk Scoring: It estimates the probability of malignancy, providing valuable support for clinical decision-making.
- Detection of Infections like COVID-19: During the pandemic, Meta4thorax was actively used in hospitals to detect signs of COVID-19 and other pulmonary infections.
Meta4thorax is especially valuable in early detection of lung cancer, offering physicians a powerful diagnostic assistant.
Enhancing Clinical Decision-Making
Metaksoft’s Meta4 systems do more than just analyze images—they provide decision support to physicians, offering key benefits such as:
- Time Efficiency: Faster screening enables evaluation of more patient data in clinical workflows.
- Second Opinion: AI acts as a virtual second opinion to complement the doctor’s judgment.
- Educational Support: Ideal for training new doctors by providing annotated case studies and diagnostic feedback.
Ethics and Responsibility: AI Assists, Doctors Decide
Metaksoft Limited places strong emphasis on medical ethics in its product development. Meta4mammo and Meta4thorax are designed not to replace physicians, but to enhance their expertise and support better decisions. The final decision always lies with the clinician.
Conclusion: A Smarter Future in Healthcare
Metaksoft Limited’s Meta4mammo and Meta4thorax systems are becoming indispensable tools in the fight against complex diseases like cancer. These AI innovations are making diagnosis more accurate, faster, and more reliable.
This advancement in health technology not only shapes the present but lays the foundation for the future. With its ethical and impactful approach to AI integration, Metaksoft aims to improve the lives of millions of patients around the world.
