Batch reading of DBT exams leads to reader performance boost

AuntMinnie

Batch reading of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) exams can improve the reading performance of radiologists, according to research published November 12 in Radiology. This study demonstrates that both parameters change sequentially in batch reading, consistent with perceptual adaptation affecting radiologists.”

Can customized reader pairing boost mammo double reading performance?

AuntMinnie

In Europe, breast cancer screening involves double reading, where two interpreting radiologists review mammography images. However, radiologist pairing in this setting is done randomly, and screening performance varies among radiologists. In total, the team included data from 3,592,414 mammography exams. per 1,000 exams 54.1

Study on breast density notification narratives draws mixed reaction

AuntMinnie

A recent Australian study criticizing narratives surrounding breast density notification has drawn mixed reactions from radiologists and advocates of breast cancer screening. Radiologists have studied and continue to research how breast density plays into breast cancer risk. The law goes into effect September 10, 2024.

AI scoring predicts future breast cancer risk

AuntMinnie

Using exam data from between 2004 and 2018, the team evaluated the AI algorithm in 2022 and 2023. The algorithm provided a continuous cancer detection score for each exam ranging from zero to 100, with higher scores translating to a higher likelihood of cancer on the mammogram. 79 Average differences (prior to interval cancers) 19.7

AI shows promise as first reader in breast cancer screening

AuntMinnie

While double reading in breast cancer screening is used in Europe, radiologist shortages and capacity issues could hinder the feasibility of this method. The team included data from 257,671 screening mammograms performed between 2014 and 2018. They also compared the results with those of first reading and combined reading.

In addition, radiologists’ interpretive performance improved with DBT. Our study demonstrated that more radiologists in U.S. Breast cancer mortality reduction from routine screening is contingent upon radiologists’ interpretive performance. As of September 2022, 84% of all mammography screening facilities in the U.S.
