Artificial intelligence (AI)–assisted mammograms were found to reduce radiologist workload by approximately 40% when completely certain of their assessment of the screening. The study published in Radiology, led by PhD candidate Sarah Verboom at Radboud University Medical Center in the Netherlands, aimed to evaluate the AI model’s performance compared with 2-radiologist readings.
Overall, the AI model met expectations when detecting malignancies; however, when the AI was forced to operate at the specificity of radiologist single and double readings (98.2% and 98.3%, respectively), the sensitivity was significantly lower...
