Changes in AI mammogram image-based risk scores over time help predict future breast cancer

AI Summary

Researchers using AI in mammography have discovered that changes in image-based risk scores over time improve prediction of future breast cancer risk. This advancement may enable dynamic personalized cancer screening protocols.

Using artificial intelligence (AI), researchers found that image-based risk scores for breast cancer derived from screening mammograms evolve over time and differ between women who develop cancer and those who do not, opening the door to a new era of dynamic breast cancer risk assessment. The new research was published in Radiology.
