“We are quite pleased to be able to expand our long standing partnership with market leader FujiFilm to offer customers our next generation mammography computer-aided detection platform, PowerLook Advanced Mammography Platform with FujiFilm’s family of Aspire HD Full-Field Digital Mammography Systems,” said Ken Ferry, CEO of iCAD. “This FDA approval further validates SecondLook Digital CAD with PowerLook AMP as a leading tool in cancer detection allowing us to deliver the most advanced and comprehensive imaging solutions to the radiology community.”
