Topic: Improving radiologist performance in breast cancer detection with the concurrent use of an artificial intelligence tool
Study overview
A study was conducted to evaluate and determine how the use of the concurrent AI tool could improve radiologists’ performance in breast cancer detection. It involved 14 radiologists who read 240 mammographic cases with and without the aid of AI. The AI tool, MammoScreen, was used to identify abnormalities in the mammogram and assess their malignancy. The cases included 80 true positives, 40 false negatives, 80 true negatives, and 40 false positives. The study proved the improvement in radiologist reading performance with the use of AI software.
