In testing, the score outperformed traditional mammographic density measurements in flagging patients for supplemental breast imaging following a negative screening mammogram. In clinical practice, individuals with very high AISmartDensity score may benefit from supplemental screening tests to enhance early detection,” the authors wrote.

The data also suggests that 3D mammograms could reduce the incidence of advanced cancer diagnoses. Researchers analyzed 1,407 breast cancer cases detected from August 2008 to July 2021, including 35,544 DM screenings and 237,394 DBT screenings. A randomized clinical trial to assess the impact of DBT is ongoing.
