Bangalore, October 11 2020: Niramai Health Analytix, the Indian AI-based  contactless breast cancer screening company has tied-up with Apollo Clinic, India’s leading multi-specialty clinics to offer contact-less, privacy-sensitive, breast cancer screening services to customers.
The screening services will be initially available at all Apollo Clinic clinics across Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Pune and will be ramped up pan-India in due course. 
Customers will now be able to get themselves screened for their annual preventive breast screening and regular breast health check-ups. The test is appropriate for women 18 years and above and is privacy aware, non-invasive, radiation free and can detect the minutest of lumps or abnormalities. Customers can avail the screening service either at the various Apollo Clinic locations or can even book home-screening services through their nearest Apollo Clinic centre.   
Niramai’s proprietary solution ‘Thermalytix’ uses a high resolution thermal sensing device and a cloud hosted analytics solution for analyzing thermal images using big data analytics, artificial intelligence and machine learning for reliable, early and accurate breast cancer screening. This solution has led to 9 US granted patents and several prestigious awards.

NIRAMAI's systematic study evaluating the clinical efficacy of Thermalytix solution is
now published in the most reputed ASCO Journal of Clinical Oncology (JCO GO).

The report evaluates the sensitivity and specificity of Thermalytix, an artificial intelligence-based
computer-aided diagnostics (CADx) engine, to detect breast malignancy by comparing the CADx
output with the final diagnosis derived using standard screening modalities.
