Researchers developed an explainable AI model to improve breast cancer detection in MRI with lower false positive rates.
Key Details
- 1AI model was trained on over 10,000 contrast-enhanced breast MRI exams from 2005 to 2022.
- 2The dataset included diverse cases and varying categories of breast density for robust training.
- 3Unlike prior models, this AI was evaluated on both low- and high-prevalence cancer cohorts, improving clinical relevance.
- 4The model features explainability to provide evidence-backed decisions, critical for clinical adoption.
- 5A key aim is to reduce false positive rates, a common issue in breast MRI diagnostics.
Why It Matters
False positives in breast MRI can lead to unnecessary anxiety and follow-up tests. Explainable, robust AI models like this can aid radiologists in accurate cancer detection and support clinical integration through transparency.
