Artificial Intelligence Flags Interval Breast Cancers Visible at Screening
Mammographically visible types more accurately localized by AI than nonvisible interval breast cancers
Abbreviated Breast MRI Has High Diagnostic Accuracy for Dense Breasts
For women with extremely dense breasts negative for cancer at mammography, abbreviated MRI comparable to full multiparametric protocol
Patients Mainly Prefer AI as Second Reader for Screening Mammogram
Higher education linked to higher AI acceptance; concern for bias greater in Hispanic, non-Hispanic Black versus White participants
Breast Cancer Outcomes Improved With History of Screening Mammography
Prior screening mammography linked to earlier stage at breast cancer diagnosis, lower breast cancer mortality
Many Women Undergo Annual Mammography, Despite Biennial Screening Recommendations
75.2 percent of those reporting mammography screening in past two years reported screening in the past year
ACC: Screening Mammograms + AI May ID Cardiovascular Disease
Heart attack, stroke, heart failure, and death increase with breast arterial calcification
Minority Groups Less Likely to Receive Diagnostic Services After Abnormal Mammogram
Onsite availability similar across racial and ethnic groups, but minority patients less likely to receive diagnostic imaging after abnormal screening
AI Contributes to Early Detection of Clinically Relevant Breast Cancer
Increase seen in detection of invasive cancers and in situ cancers, with reduction in screen-reading workload
AI-Supported Double Mammogram Reading Improves Detection Rate
Superior breast cancer detection rate seen compared with standard double-reading, without negatively affecting recall rate
Decrease Seen in In Situ Breast Cancer Since 2009
Decrease consistent with decreasing use of screening mammography since 2009 guideline change
