The company stated that the new technology has been integrated with pathology (biopsy) results as a ground truth, which will allow it to recognise patterns that may not normally be visible to the human eye.
Additionally, the algorithm incorporates human-annotated images.
The VisualCheck technology closely mirrors cervical cancer and pre-cancer distribution in patients.
It uses an extensive dataset of cervical images, which were collected from across the globe, in various clinical stages.

MobileODT CEO Leon Boston said: “This new and novel algorithm is a testament to our technological advances and abilities as a FemTech digital health company.
“These developments are bringing our technology to the forefront of women’s health.”
The new algorithm was evaluated in a clinical trial, and the initial results supported its use as a primary screening tool.
The study results will be presented at the EUROGIN Conference in Dusseldorf, Germany, this May.
Stanford University Emeritus of Obstetrics and Gynecology professor Paul Blumenthal said: “AI is the future of women’s health and I am a great believer in its potential to revolutionise cervical cancer prevention.
“The inclusion of biopsy-based images to the algorithm has increased the clinical validity of the results.”
