Artificial intelligence (AI) improves breast cancer detection accuracy for radiologists when reading screening mammograms, helping them devote more of their attention to suspicious areas, according to a study published today in Radiology, a journal of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA).
Previous research has shown that AI for decision support improves radiologist performance by increasing sensitivity for cancer detection without extending reading time. However, the impact of AI on radiologists’ visual search patterns remains underexplored.
To learn more, researchers used an eye tracking system to compare radiologist performance and visual search patterns when reading screening mammograms without and with an AI decision support system. The system included a small camera-based device positioned in front of the screen with two...
