New research shows that a decision-referral approach in which radiologists and artificial intelligence work together for breast cancer screening is better than either’s performance alone.
A study published in The Lancet Digital Health this month highlights how a decision-referral approach, in which radiologists work with artificial intelligence (AI) models to evaluate breast cancer screenings, achieves better results than clinicians or algorithms would have alone.
The researchers note that the rise of AI use in medical imaging has spurred significant research into the development of accurate cancer screening algorithms. Some studies suggest that AI performs on par with clinicians in terms of image interpretation, but more evidence is needed in areas such as breast cancer screening. Other research further suggests...
