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. In autonomous triage, examinations the system classifies as clearly normal can be reported by AI without a radiologist reading them; every other examination continues to be read by at least one radiologist. 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
