New screenings combine advanced artificial intelligence with radiologist review to improve early detection of breast cancer and heart disease. 


SimonMed Imaging announced the launch of Mammogram+ and Mammogram+ Heart, two new AI-enhanced mammogram services aimed at improving early detection and advancing preventative care.

Mammogram+ is SimonMed’s most advanced breast cancer screening to date, according to a press release from the company. By combining two AI technologies with expert breast radiologist review, Mammogram+ is designed to spot cancer earlier and deliver more personalized insights on patients’ breast density, lifetime risk. This service replaces the previous PBCD (Personalized Breast Cancer Detection) program. 

Building on this new technology in breast health, Mammogram+ Heart is designed to enhance standard mammography by incorporating an AI-based assessment of Breast Arterial Calcification (BAC), an emerging clinical marker linked to cardiovascular risk in women. This dual-purpose screening enables detection of both breast cancer and early signs of heart disease in a single appointment.

Mammogram+ and Mammogram+ Heart are now available at SimonMed locations nationwide that offer mammography services. These are optional add-ons that can be included with a standard screening mammogram—Mammogram+ for an additional $50, and Mammogram+ Heart for an additional $90. No referral is needed for patients to include either service as part of their regular mammogram.
“Women deserve the best tools available when it comes to detecting disease early,” says Dr Angela Fried, director of breast imaging at SimonMed, in a release. “With Mammogram+ and Mammogram+ Heart, we’re offering more than a scan—we’re delivering deeper insight, earlier intervention, and more empowered care.”
