Digital Cytology System for Cervical Cancer Screening

Hologic, Inc

The Genius Digital Diagnostics System from Hologic is a digital cytology system for cervical cancer screening that has received US FDA clearance. The system leverages volumetric imaging technology and learning-based AI to analyze cells gathered via pap tests and has demonstrated increased disease detection and a reduction in false negatives of certain relevant cells

Designed to streamline efficiency and workflow in the lab, its AI algorithm helps to pinpoint the cells a cytologist or pathologist should review. The system can enable remote case review, as it digitally images the sample. The remote case review option may help alleviate workforce shortages and health equity challenges, as samples can be digitally reviewed across departments and facilities. With this capability, patients can benefit from the collective knowledge of geographically dispersed experts.
