A new study published in The Lancet Oncology has found that AI-supported mammography analysis is just as effective as two radiologists working together in detecting breast cancer.
The study involved over 80,000 Swedish women and showed that AI did not increase false positives and greatly reduced the workload for radiologists. However, the final results of the trial, which will determine if AI reduces interval cancers in 100,000 women over two years, are not expected for several years.
Researchers caution that more research is needed to fully understand the implications of using AI in mammography screening, including its impact on patient outcomes and cost-effectiveness. AI-supported screening has the potential to alleviate the burden on radiologists and improve efficiency, but more evidence from prospective randomized trials is still lacking.
