Vara Receives World-First CE Certification for Autonomous AI in Breast Cancer Screening2.9.2026 08:00:00 CEST | Press release

Vara has received CE certification under the EU Medical Device Regulation (Class IIb) for autonomous triage in organised breast cancer screening – the first breast AI certified anywhere to report screening examinations as normal without radiologist review.

This deployment mode is intended for organised population screening, where a shrinking radiologist workforce is straining programmes that still read every mammogram twice. The certification has only been possible because Vara has developed a safety system that supervises the autonomous use of its AI models. "What made this possible is not the AI model alone," said Stefan Bunk, CTO and co-founder of Vara. "It is based on seven years of continuous monitoring of how our AI performs in the real world, on every single case. That experi
