New AI tool predicts breast cancer risk using repeated 3D mammograms

An artificial intelligence model that analyzes women's past and recent annual 3D mammograms is more effective at predicting five-year risk of developing breast cancer than a tool that uses only the most recent, single 3D mammogram, as well as an AI model that analyzes 2D mammograms, a new study shows.

AI-Assisted Imaging Tool For Breast Cancer Could Tailor Screening For Women According To Individual Risk

“Our study shows how AI models like NYU-DRP can be used to reliably determine a woman’s future risk of breast cancer based on existing 3D mammograms, which hold information on how the breast tissue has changed across multiple screenings over time,” said study lead investigator Yanqi Xu, PhD, a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Radiology at NYU Grossman School of Medicine and Perlmutter Cancer Center <p>The post AI-Assisted Imagin…
