AI-Enhanced Mammography Boosts Breast Cancer Detection
A large randomized trial finds that AI-assisted mammography significantly improves cancer detection rates while reducing the workload for radiologists.

New research suggests that radiotherapy does not improve survival rates for older patients in the early stages of breast cancer. The addition of radiotherapy alongside breast-conserving surgery and hormone therapy一the current standard treatment一made no difference to the death rates for patients 65 years or older, researchers say.
Researchers have found that manipulating voltage patterns of tumor cells—using ion channel blockers already U.S. FDA-approved as treatments for other diseases—can in fact significantly reduce metastasis in animal models of breast cancer.
An automated system that uses artificial intelligence (AI) can quickly and accurately sift through breast MRIs in women with dense breasts to eliminate those without cancer, freeing up radiologists to focus on more complex cases, according to a study published in Radiology.

Read MoreCompared with commonly used clinical risk factors, a sophisticated type of artificial intelligence called deep learning does a better job distinguishing between the mammograms of women who will later develop breast cancer and those who will not, according to a new study.
Read MorePrediction models based on clinical characteristics and imaging findings may help reduce the false-positive rate in women with dense breasts who undergo supplemental breast cancer screening with MRI, according to a new study in the journal Radiology.
Read MoreAccording to an open-access article in the American Journal of Roentgenology, artificial intelligence-based computer-aided detection can be a practical addition for lowering false-positive findings when performing post-breast conserving therapy surveillance mammography.
