Boosted by more revenue from its digital mammography business, medical imaging software developer MeVis Medical Solutions of Bremen, Germany, grew revenues and earnings in 2009.
Revenue increased 28% to 13.9 million euros ($18 million U.S.) in 2009, compared with 10.8 million euros ($14 million) in 2008. Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) more than doubled to 1.6 million euros ($2 million) in 2009, compared with 700,000 euros ($910,000) in 2008.
The growth in revenue was largely due to the company's profitable digital mammography business, which tallied revenue of 10.1 million euros last year ($13.4 million), compared with 6.9 million euros ($9.2 million) in 2008.

![A normal mammogram confirmed by three-year radiologic follow-up illustrates reader-marked regions of interest (ROIs) during (A) unaided (round 1) and (B) artificial intelligence (AI)–assisted (round 2) reading. Each colored dot represents an ROI for recall by a human reader. Readers could mark more than one ROI per case, represented by multiple dots of the same color. During AI-assisted reading, the AI system displayed three visible prompts: two with suspicion of malignancy scores of 35% (left mediolateral oblique [L MLO] and craniocaudal [L CC]) and one with a suspicion of malignancy score of 10% (right craniocaudal [R CC]), shown as polygonal overlays. Without AI, six of 10 readers (60%) marked a false-positive ROI. With AI assistance, this fell to two of 10 (20%). R MLO = right mediolateral oblique.](https://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/07/2026-07-14-radiology-mammogram-ai-auto-bias.H0bYO8QlWs.jpg?auto=format%2Ccompress&dpr=2&fit=crop&h=167&q=70&w=250)
