Lecture Overview
As the value of deep learning continues to find a foothold in breast imaging, reliance upon artificial intelligence for breast cancer screening will improve image interpretation accuracy 1,2,3 and equip doctors with a tool to decrease unnecessary breast biopsies.4

In addition to improved diagnosis, clinical, decision making, and improved patient outcomes, AI promises to be a valuable tool for radiology workflow. With the aid of AI, radiologists can spend more time interpreting studies and helping patients.5

Educational Objectives
At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Discuss the current status of artificial intelligence (AI) as it relates to breast cancer screening with mammography
  • Describe how AI will likely impact the daily practice of radiologists, including enhancement of image interpretation and subsequent reduction of unnecessary breast biopsies
  • In addition to image improved diagnosis, clinical, decision making, and improved patient outcomes, identify other areas in radiology where AI will have a significant impact
