Commercially available artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms that help radiologists immediately detect breast cancer at mammography screening can also highlight women who are at risk years before their eventual diagnosis, research indicates.
The findings, reported in JAMA Network Open, could offer a pathway for personalized screening that may lead to the earlier diagnosis of breast cancer.
Mean absolute AI scores were higher in breasts that developed cancer four to six years before its eventual detection compared with breasts that remained cancer free.
“If the scores of commercial AI algorithms developed for immediate cancer detection can also estimate future cancer risk, then more accurate and reliable short-term risk estimation could lead to tailored, personalized preventive measures (e.g., more frequent or supplemental imaging),...
