Study in Sweden involving the scans of 80,000 women found that artificial intelligence could almost halve the workload of radiologists when it comes to searching routine scans for signs of breast cancer
Their scans were randomly divided for analysis to either an AI-supported system or two human radiologists, who served as the control group.the risk of cancer out of 10. Its predictions were then checked by a radiologist.
When it came to false positives -- when a mammogram is first thought to look suspicious but is later cleared -- both the AI-supported system and the two humans spotted the same rate: 1.5 percent. "The greatest potential of AI right now is that it could allow radiologists to be less burdened by the excessive amount of reading," said Kristina Lang, a radiologist at Sweden's Lund University and lead author of the study.
It will take two more years before the trial can say whether using AI leads to a reduction in what are called interval cancers, which are detected between routine screenings, the researchers cautioned.
