Many women avoid regular painful tests for detecting breast cancer due to radiation, breast touch screening, privacy concerns, etc. However, this can result in a late diagnosis of the disease, which can be fatal. Women can now get radiation-free, non\u2013invasive, non\u2013touch breast cancer tests through Dr. Geetha Manjunath\u2019s NIRAMAI<\/strong>. She has developed a new technique which is her award-winning deep-tech start-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let us know more about NIRAMAI\u2019s<\/strong> brief and inspiring journey which is helping women a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About Niramai: The Journey of Leaving an MNC to Start NIRAMAI<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Manjunath\u2019s <\/strong>research for thermal imaging lasted for two years, but she observed that while this technique was performing admirably well, it was not flawless. As a result of this, Dr. Manjunath<\/strong>, together with three of her colleagues, left an MNC to focus solely on developing a non\u2013invasive device that could identify problems and abnormalities related to breast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Radiation free Testing:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thermalytix <\/strong>is NIRAMAI\u2019s<\/strong> core technology, analyzes thermal pictures using a high\u2013resolution thermal sensor device and a cloud-hosted AI-based solution. The radiation-free, non\u2013invasive test is performed behind a curtain that separates the operator and the patient. This implies that women with a family history of breast cancer can have their breasts examined every six months without having to worry about the harmful side effects of radiation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML):<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Critical in the Fight against Breast Cancer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Dr. Geeta Manjunath<\/strong>, <\/a>we could provide smarter objective interpretation and data-based decision-making for this imaging diagnosis by adding AI and ML to software that analyses thermal pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NIRAMAI Health Analytix’s <\/strong>disease-fighting method relies heavily on artificial intelligence (AI) <\/strong>and machine learning (ML)<\/strong>. In 2016, <\/strong>Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) was used to enhance breast cancer survival rates by enabling early detection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within a Few Years of its Debut, NIRAMAI Received Several Honours<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to CB Insights<\/strong>, NIRAMAI<\/strong> is the sole Indian start\u2013up on the 2019 Top AI 100 startups list<\/strong>. The firm has also received several accolades, including the Gold prize<\/strong> at Hack Osaka<\/strong>, the Aegis Graham Bell Award<\/strong>, the Frost & Sullivan Award<\/strong>, and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Geeta Manjunath\u2019s<\/strong> vision makes the seemingly impossible seem achievable. Dr. Manjunath<\/strong> says that NIRAMAI<\/strong> is not limited to breast cancer detection alone, and research is being conducted on using Thermalytix<\/strong> for screening other types of cancers. The company has also been approved by CE Mark<\/strong> and intends to expand to European<\/strong> and African<\/strong> countries as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
