Swedish imaging informatics and digital mammography developer Sectra reported fiscal 2005 second-quarter net sales of 144.7 million Swedish kronor ($18.7 million U.S.), a 21.3% upswing when compared with net sales of 119.3 million kronor ($14.9 million) in the same quarter last year, according to the firm.
For the period (end-October 31) the Linköping-based vendor said it had a net profit of 13.4 million kronor ($1.7 million), a downturn compared with net profits of 29.6 million kronor ($3.7 million) in the same period a year ago.
The firm attributed the decrease in profits to its expanded efforts in securing a position in long-term key markets. Sectra said it will continue to invest heavily in new marketing, sales, and support channels over the next one to two years.

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%).
