Although larger studies are needed to validate these findings, our results suggest that ordering screening mammograms for reading by increasing volumetric breast density may be feasible,” the study authors wrote. For batch reading, this requires interpreting radiologists to adapt to the characteristics of the mammogram they are reading.

Many women with dense breasts would benefit from additional screening after their mammogram. DBI features provider resources and patient educational tools.

“In recent years, AI has been studied for the purpose of diagnosing breast cancer earlier by automatically detecting breast cancers in mammograms and measuring the risk of future breast cancer.” Diagnostic AI models are trained to detect suspicious lesions on mammograms and are well suited to estimate short-term breast cancer risk.

The difference is that tomosynthesis avoids the overlapping of structures and allows the lesions to be seen better when recreating a volumetric image, such that it is also known as' 3D mammography.' Almost 24,000 women were examined only with 2D mammograms, while another group of 16,000 was also evaluated with breast tomosynthesis.

Further, the task force incorrectly concludes there is “inadequate” evidence to support adding screening MRI (or ultrasound if MRI is not possible) after a mammogram for many women with dense breasts. In women with the densest breasts, about 40% of cancers are missed on a mammogram. But women with dense breasts are at higher risk.
