When it comes to breast cancer detection, timing is everything. That’s why iSono Health — led by CTO Shadi Saberi — is on a mission to revolutionize early diagnosis through technology.
As part of our Arionkoder Reshape Health Grants, we’re supporting iSono Health and their innovative, AI-driven, portable 3D breast ultrasound scanner, designed to reduce operator dependency and bring critical screenings to more women worldwide.
We’re collaborating with them to enhance the explainability and usability of their AI results, as well as refine their lesion detection model for higher precision.
We’re thrilled to contribute to this life-saving work. Follow along for updates as we continue to push the boundaries of health innovation!

So our device is basically a mini robot. So this is actually our device, and it uses a transducer that is similar to what is used in a handheld probe. It gets attached to a variable accessor and gets positioned on the breast, and it can automatically scan the whole breast completely hands-free in two minutes.
But this can even be improved if we can add AI that can do the inference real-time to be able to triage the patient, to be able to detect the abnormality and let the operator know that they can further follow-up with same actions there and on-site. A lot of places the patient has to travel to go to another imaging site. So we can reduce that need for travel, by adding these AI. We can also improve the workflow of the radiologists and make the diagnosis more accurate.
So I’m really happy that we have this opportunity to invest in this part and for the grants that help us to achieve our goals.
