CAD program meshes with FFDM

Emerging research suggests that radiomic breast texture features extracted from full-field digital mammography may bolster prognostic assessments of invasive breast cancer risk beyond traditional risk factors.

In the third episode of a three-part podcast, Anand Narayan, M.D., Ph.D., and Amy Patel, M.D., discuss the challenges of expanded breast cancer screening amid a backdrop of radiologist shortages and ever-increasing volume on radiology worklists.

For DBT breast cancer screening, 47 percent of radiologist-only flagged false positives involved mass presentations whereas 40 percent of AI-only flagged false positive cases involved benign calcifications, according to research presented at the recent American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS) conference.

In the second episode of a three-part podcast, Anand Narayan, M.D., Ph.D., and Amy Patel, M.D., discuss recent studies published by the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) that suggested moving to more of a risk-adapted model for mammography screening.

Seniors who had at least one prior screening mammography exam in the five years prior to breast cancer diagnosis were over a third less likely to die from breast cancer, according to new research.
