AI Optimizes Breast MRI by Reducing Unnecessary Scans

June 6, 2025

AI can streamline breast MRI by recommending which patients need fewer imaging sequences mid-exam.

Key Details

  • AI models can evaluate breast MRI images in real time to determine whether additional imaging sequences are needed.
  • Standard breast MRI protocols are often lengthy, with sequences that may not be necessary for all patients.
  • The research, published in Radiology, found AI triage could personalize scan protocols to each patient, reducing imaging time and costs.
  • Study was conducted by researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

Why It Matters

Streamlining MRI protocols with AI can improve clinical efficiency, reduce scan times for patients, and optimize use of imaging resources. This approach could lower costs and expand access while maintaining diagnostic quality.
